They go to AI-ncognito.
Don’t want your IT guys spying on your private ChatGPT messages?
Fear not: parent company OpenAI has announced a new stealth mode that keeps your conversations out of sight of your employees and from possible leaks.
“We are moving more and more in this direction of prioritizing user privacy,” said Mira Murati, chief technology officer of the Silicon Valley company. told Reuters Regarding privacy protection measures.
Similar to “incognito mode” in web browsers, a new feature released on Tuesday allows AI enthusiasts to toggle off “chat history and training” in settings.
So, in theory, GPT no longer stores a compendium of a user’s previous chats, nor is it reviewed by an “AI trainer to improve the system.” In accordance with the policies set out on the site.
Murati said the move is part of a months-long privacy campaign aimed at putting users “in the driver’s seat” when it comes to data collection.
“It’s a total eye-catcher and the models are very matching. They do what you want,” claimed the tech expert.
The move comes at a time of growing privacy concerns surrounding ChatGPT.
Last month, Italian regulators banned the Microsoft-backed bot after reports of a data breach that raised alarm bells for user privacy and child safety.
The agency said OpenAI “has no legal basis” for collecting user data collected “to train the algorithms that power its platform.”
Around the same time, OpenAI reported that a glitch caused ChatGPT to accidentally share the conversation history of random users. PC magazine reported.
GPTers realized the problem after noticing that their history feature was showing unfamiliar conversations from seemingly strangers.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tweeted about the leak, but thankfully the identity of the author was not disclosed.
