There's "topical" chemo for some stuff, but it's uncommon. Most chemo is either in pill form, or (as was for me) delivered intravenously. So it goes through the whole body.
Radiation therapy can target specific areas. It's still used instead of chemo in some cases.
For me, they cut out most of a giant tumor, but couldn't get all of it without risking some vital organs. Then I got chemo for the rest. Interesting process.
Usually the cancer cells are concentrated where the tumor is. One of the first things they may do upon diagnosis of cancer is a PET scan (which shows you where cancerous stuff is throughout your body).
Life advice for all the young folks: don't get cancer.
my understanding is that the word "concentrated" does a lot of heavy lifting, and modern thought is that most cancers started spreading cells all over the body, even at very early stages.
metastatic cancer is a numbers game. for example. at stage 0-1, you might still have millions of cancer cells throughout your body, and there is a good chance your immune system can clean them up. At stages 2 or 3 there might be trillions of non-local cancer cells, with a proportionally greater chance of propagation.
It's possible OpenAI doesn't get any money; and they just provide whatever "AI service" is being requested of them, and returns the results to Dropbox.
And, well, if OpenAI just happens to gain access to a trove of data by providing the service... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
meh, I agree, don't trust future Dropbox, but the way it's explained is this switch stops any team member from using the alpha OpenAI integration to search files you have in drop box And since that integration has to send OpenAI your data, this switch prevents it.
again, don't trust future drop box but the hidden switch here is willfully interacting with dropboxs' openAi integration.
