Not only code, I have heard horror stories of employees uploading regulated customer data to Open AI.

There’s a ~3000 word prompt limit so while it’s bad whole user datasets are unlikely to have been uploaded… the issue will come when ChatGPT work out how to do live training from prompts and other user interactions, I suppose it will be filtered but nothing is 100%.

  Doesn't necessarily apply to data being processed with plugins. The "Code Interpreter" plugin lets you upload files up to 100 MB for use by AI-generated Python scripts; see https://www.oneusefulthing.org/p/it-is-starting-to-get-strange https://www.oneusefulthing.org/p/it-is-starting-to-get-stran... for examples (including useful output from vague prompts like "please characterize this dataset", at least if you get lucky).

There was a "Show HN" post on here that was planning on using this type of AI to help doctors, basically letting them pipe their patients' medical data into an online AI chat. The way basic privacy and secrecy is ignored in this space is staggering.

  The whole space is built around it. The reason is simple. These machine learning systems need massive amounts of data to calibrate for accuracy. They are not intelligent to somehow learn on their own. So machine learning companies have figured they can do an aggressive marketing campaign to make people think these are intelligent and uncontrollable to mask their never ending hunger for our data, hoping everyone is ignorant enough not to catch on. What remains to be seen is whether we come back to our senses soon enough. A lot of “experts” working in ai are warning about dangers but what they omit telling is that it’s the humans who own ai that are dangerous.

    That’s just plain wrong. Any AI expert worth their salt will tell that the humans who own, control and operate the AI is the primary danger, at least the way it works today.
