Provide global controls

Allow the user to globally customize what the AI system monitors and how it behaves.

Allow the user to globally customize what the AI system monitors and how it behaves.

Empower the user to customize how the AI system behaves and apply those preferences system-wide (globally). For example, provide options for the user to control specific AI settings or parameters (e.g., turning on parental controls in a search engine) or what information it collects (e.g., restricting a smart phone application from accessing location information).
