Samsung employees accidentally leaks company information on ChatGPT
In the twenty days that ChatGPT has been authorised for use at their semiconductor facilities, Samsung has reportedly logged three separate instances of data leakage by employees. A Samsung employee has reportedly pasted confidential company source code into the chatbot to check for errors.
Another employee also shared code with the AI chatbot, requesting for "code optimization". In the third instance, an employee shared a recording of a confidential company meeting to convert into notes.
Since there are no secrets online, that information is now part of ChatGPT forever, irking Samsung.
Interestingly, there is a lot of increasing scrutiny over OpenAI and ChatGPT's data collection policies in Europe, with Italy outrightly banning the AI chatbot over privacy concerns.
Reports suggest that Samsung has now limited ChatGPT's uploads to only 1024 bytes per person and is also investigating the employees that were part of the leak.
