Sharing an AI subscription with a friend or family member sounds harmless, especially when plans can get pricey. But giving someone the login information to your ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude account is nothing like sharing a Netflix password. These tools store your prompts, process personal data and when enabled, even remember your preferences.

When you share your account, you’re not just giving someone access to an AI — you’re handing over your digital identity, your past conversations and potentially sensitive information you don't remember and never meant to share.
