This is the biggest thing holding gpt back. Everyone with meaningful data has their hands tied behind their back. So many ideas and the answer is “we can’t put that data in gpt” very frustrating.
- geysersam 4y agoSounds like an easy problem to solve if this is actually the case. OpenAI just has to promise they won't store the data. Perhaps they'll add a privacy premium for the extra effort, but so what?
- null_shift 4y agoAnyone that actually cares about the privacy of their data isn’t going to be satisfied with just a “promise”.
- geysersam 4y agoA legal binding agreement, whatever.
- Gene_Parmesan 4y agoStill not enough. Seriously. Once information is out there it cannot be clawed back, but legal agreements are easily broken. I worked as a lawyer for six years; there are extremely strict ethical and legal restrictions around sharing privileged information.

- sebzim4500 4y agoHospitals are not storing the data on a harddrive in their basement so clearly this is a solvable problem. Here's a list of AWS services which can be used to store HIPAA data: https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/hipaa-eligible-services-reference/ https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/hipaa-eligible-services-re... As you can see, there is much more than zero of them.
- heartbreak 4y agoThe biglaw firms I’m familiar with still store matter data exclusively on-prem. There’s a significant chunk of floor space in my office tower dedicated to running a law firm server farm for a satellite office.
- soderfoo 4y agoYou can't unring a bell. Very true. Nevertheless, the development of AI jurisprudence will be interesting.
- JamesBarney 4y agoThis might have been true 10-15 years ago. But I've worked at plenty of places that store/process confidential, HIPAA, etc data in the cloud. Most company's confidential information is already in their Gmail, or Office 365.
- zirgs 4y agoWhat if there's a data breach? Hackers can't steal data that OpenAI doesn't have in the first place.
- hnick 4y agoOr legal order. If you're on-site or on-cloud and in the US then it might not matter since they can get your data anyway, but if you're in another country uploading data across borders can be a problem.
- chillfox 4y agoAnother way of looking at that is that gpt not being open source so companies can run it on their own clusters is holding it back.
- nine_k 4y agoBack in the day Google offered hardware search appliances. Offering sealed server boxes with GPT software, to run on premises heavily firewalled or air-gapped could be a viable business model.

- nine_k 4y agoI'm afraid that even the most obedient human can't readily dump the contents of their connectome in a readable format. Same likely applies to LLMs: they study human-generated texts, not their own source code, let alone their tensors' weights.
- euroderf 4y agoWell, what they study is decided by the relevant hoominz. There's nothing actually stopping LLMs from trying to understand their own innards, is there ? Except for the actual access.
