Just rolled it out internally at our company as well. It’s nice to have access to GPT-4 without having to pay for it myself (those queries and responses get pricey if you use it a lot). Super helpful for boilerplate code. Right now, we have a limit of 500 tokens though, so it somewhat limits asking more complex questions. Interestingly, our internal team supporting it has added a ton of initial prompts depending on w…

How did you get access to GPT4? Were you guys already using the 3.5 model and get upgraded at some point?

I actually don’t know. We just rolled out access to LLMs internally for the first time within the last week and both models were present when I was granted access.

"We do not use Content that you provide to or receive from our API ("API Content") to develop or improve our Services." That sentence does not claim OpenAI does not use such Content for other purposes besides "developing and improving the Services". For example, using the Content in a manner that potentially harms Samsung's business. What does "develop or improve our Services" even mean? There is no definition. Third…

When I go to settings there is an option: > Save new chats to your history and allow them to be used to improve ChatGPT via model training

It is there now, thanks to italy blocking them and unblocking them after it got added.

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

If you think of it more as opening Pandora's box rather than open source then it's easier to swallow.

Based on the way things have gone with them, it kind of leaves one with the impression that they are building the Dolores Umbridge of AI's and if that becomes AGI first, it will be complete hell to live on this planet, or anywhere the AI can find you really.

Software companies must be leaking code on a massive scale right now.

Always have been. I've been working on healthcare project, they haven't even shared all the repos with us, for data leakage concern, but they were using free web tools to format jsons and things like that. Boggles the mind.

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?

> Do these companies worry that web browsers like Chrome could leak data or applications like Google Docs? Yes they do. Where I work the whole google office suite is blocked from inside the network (you have to use MS Office). ChatGPT is blocked. Most web apps that you can copy text or data into are either blocked, or we have an agreement with the provider, or (for open source) we have an internal on-prem fork.

Indeed. At $JOB for example we block Compiler Explorer, but it is so useful that we run our own instance locally.

We already have something developed like that in our company (~30 pax employee owned wealth management firm). It's.... interesting. We currently use GPT-4 combined with an internal knowledge base we had earlier since the beginning, and we practically have to fire our chief of staff and the admin team. Just kidding, but it's made her team's work a ton easier that she can devote more time to the nitty-gritty hard stuff…

I am about to release a self hosted GPT that works with OpenAI and Azure OpenAI. It has several enterprise features, mostly around authentication/authorisation. I'll let you know when it drops or you can be a beta tester if you like!

Noted. Just a few questions, what do you mean by "works with OpenAI"? I thought those were closed systems, so is the system basically pretrained and the weights saved? I'm pretty sure that if it were even possible, it would still be misuse per their terms and conditions?

Currently we use an initial semantic search for context injection, which is then passed to GPT for completions. If any LLAMA company were to make that second pretrained bit self-hostable for some license fee, I know a bunch of companies in finance of all sizes which would readily pounce on that tool. But I'm fairly certain that's not what Open AI wants to do.

Let’s not pretend Google search is what people mean when they say “cloud.” It’s about running internal processes on external systems. As to the risks, many companies live and die by their internal secrets. These range from a private keys, customer lists, trading strategies, and similar trade secrets to actual serious R&D efforts. Sometimes the damage is obvious such as crypto exchanges suddenly finding themselves bro…

Again, how do you know that somebody doesn't put something sensitive into the Google Search bar?

The actual history of companies losing secrets.

It’s much harder to reconstruct actionable intelligence from a huge stream of people using Google search even if they’re using it to preform sensitive calculations.

How many companies do you think have people who know security as well as Azure, GCP or AWS (disclaimer: my employer)?

What percentage of companies do you think actually use AWS securely?

There’s plenty of high profile fuckups from people falling to AWS specific gotcha’s.

One of my colleague was pasting parts of /var/log/messages into chatGPT trying to debug some sshd related issue. Is this safe? He said he was masking hostnames before pasting, would that help here?

I hope you're joking here! If not, I would fire him on the spot. If for nothing else, he should not be messing with sshd debugging if he doesn't know what he is doing.

No joke. Happened just 2 weeks back.
