"Don't make it so the model has to forget. Make it so the model never knows."
That's the single most important sentence in AI compliance—and 99% of AI builders have no idea why.
In Part 2 of our DPDP series, Amruta Moktali (CPO, Skyflow) answers the question that keeps AI founders awake:
❓ What actually happens when a user withdraws consent... but their data is already baked into your model weights?
❓ Can you even delete it? Should you?
❓ Is there a legal loophole? (Spoiler: depends on what you're optimizing for)
This isn't theoretical. We're breaking down:
✅ The recruitment AI vulnerability NOBODY is talking about (and how to avoid it)
✅ The 1% vs 99% rule that could slash your compliance costs by 10x
✅ Why one architectural decision = difference between "expensive nightmare" vs "competitive moat"
✅ The 30-day action plan that actually works (and why most founders skip it)
