Why? It’s a valid concern in my opinion. You’re feeding OpenAI your intellectual property and just hoping they don’t do anything with it. I have the same concerns with Microsoft’s TypeScript playground

Yes, 20 lines of transforming jsons from one form to another are exactly what OpenAI employees are looking for in all the data they're gathering. How will my company survive after they get their hands on this?

You'd be surprised how much load bearing software could be reduced to 20 lines of data transforms, or less.

I'm not suggesting the concerns aren't valid, but I guess I don't understand why this same principal isn't applied to other internet connected / cloud software? Do these companies worry that web browsers like Chrome could leak data or applications like Google Docs? What is it about an AI chat bots that makes the risk of a data leak so much higher? Is something about OpenAI's ToS? Or it's relative infancy?

That’s because OpenAI can use any data that you send to chatgpt for training purposes. [0] They don’t do it with their APIs btw. “(c) Use of Content to Improve Services. We do not use Content that you provide to or receive from our API (“API Content”) to develop or improve our Services. We may use Content from Services other than our API (“Non-API Content”) to help develop and improve our Services. You can read more…

I'm increasingly p1ssed off by the name "OpenAI"...

There is an option in ChatGPT that you can use to turn that off.

> Chat History & Training Save new chats to your history and allow them to be used to improve ChatGPT via model training. Unsaved chats will be deleted from our systems within 30 days.

It is a valid concern if you send an entire list of confidential data and ask it to transform that list. However if you ask ChatGPT some questions about coding in general it's no different than searching online.

Unless you feed it your proprietary code — something Samsung chip fabrication employees actually did.

Some commenters are needless making this an all or nothing situation.

Using AI in a way that doesn't share your company secrets and private code with the entire world is around the corner or already partially possible.

Very obviously Samsung will not ban AI as a whole forever.

My advice to anyone running a company atm - don't let your IT security folks do this. They will initially want to, and it will be a huge mistake.

Are you suggesting companies put their company confidential information into a system that will use it for training and other purposes?

Some even upload all their conversations and confidential internal documents to Microsoft 365!

Some even upload their credit card numbers to Amazon.

Security and privacy are different things.

It kind of boggles my mind that there are people who arent using LLMs yet. Sure its not everyone, but the people who arent using them are signaling a major red flag IMO. They are resistant to change, even if they don't understand the technology, what else are they resisting from their managers/leadership team? Further, I think of the people in my life who have refused to even try it, they all seem to have a screw or…

I can't say I was impressed with ChatGPT help when I tried it. I figured quizing it on reading comprehension would be a great task, given that it is a language based model and a skill seemingly in short supply amongst my coworkers and self. After confirming that the specifications of a standard I am implementing were within its knowledge, I tried to have it explain the difference between two parts and it failed so mi…

yeah, same boat here.

It's great for generating sample code snippets or refactoring code, but I can't paste my company's intellectual property into it

If I could train a customized version of it on all my company's Slack messages, Jira tickets, e-mails, etc it'd be insanely useful . . . . but I don't think any big company would actually want that, since it wouldn't be able to keep secrets from anyone with access to it

Can you elaborate on why that would be the case? I ask because we've had some discussion about drafting an 'AI' policy with our CTO and though we haven't said anything officially, we are concerned about exfiltration of secrets, and the accuracy of information.

I do wonder if there will one day be communications formatters like what Prettier does for code, where no matter the style of writing going in, it will come out consistent. But until there are 'communications rewriters' to match a predefined company tone and style guide it seems like anyone's use of a tool like this would by ad-hoc.

What do you think the most sensible policy is to have right now, and why?
