Thanks for sharing that nuance. It seems one court weighed in that Claude chat wasn't accepted:
> In February 2026, Judge Jed S. Rakoff of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that a defendant who pasted information—including details conveyed by his lawyers—into a public, consumer-grade AI chatbot (specifically Anthropic's Claude) completely waived his attorney-client privilege.
But maybe if you are using a transcription tool that happens to send your audio through the Anthropic APIs, the ruling would be different?
