If you paste plaintext passwords into ChatGPT, the problem is not ChatGPT; the problem is you.
Well tbf chatGPT also shouldn't remember and then leak those passwords lol.
Did you read the article? It didn't. Someone received someone else's chat history appended to one of their own chats. No prompting, just appeared overnight.
Well, that's even worse.
........ That shouldnt be happening, regardless of chat content
Well, yeah, but the point is, ChatGPT didn't "remember and then leak" anything, the web service exposed people's chat history.
Well, that depends. Do you mean gpt the specific chunk of lln code? Or do you mean gpt the website and service?
Because while the nitpicking details matter to the programmers fixing it, how much does that distinction matter to you or I, the laymen using the site?
