Latest OpenAI Announcements and Updates

As a valued user of ChatGPT, OpenAI is committed to providing you with tools and features that allow you to manage your data with ease and confidence. In this article, we will explore the new ways to manage your data in ChatGPT, including turning off chat history, introducing the Bug Bounty Program, and our approach to AI safety.

Turning Off Chat History

One of the most significant changes we have made is allowing users to turn off chat history in ChatGPT. This feature provides you with more control over how your conversations are used to train our models. When you disable chat history, any new conversations started will not be used for training or improvement purposes and will not appear in the history sidebar.

To access this feature, follow these simple steps:

  1. Open the settings menu in ChatGPT.
  2. Scroll down to the "Data Management" section.
  3. Toggle the switch next to "Chat History" to disable it.

This change is rolling out to all users starting today and can be changed at any time. We hope that this feature provides an easier way for you to manage your data than our existing opt-out process. When chat history is disabled, we will retain new conversations for 30 days and review them only when necessary to monitor for abuse before permanently deleting.

The Importance of Data Management

As AI technology advances, it’s essential that users have control over their data. We understand the importance of data management and are committed to providing you with the tools and features needed to manage your data with confidence.

Introducing the Bug Bounty Program

We are excited to introduce the OpenAI Bug Bounty Program, which is an essential part of our commitment to developing safe and advanced AI technology. As we create secure, reliable, and trustworthy systems and services, we need your help in identifying vulnerabilities and bugs that can compromise our technology.

The Bug Bounty Program is a way for us to recognize and reward the valuable insights of security researchers who contribute to keeping our technology and company secure. We invite you to report any vulnerabilities, bugs, or security flaws you discover in our systems. By sharing your findings, you will play a crucial role in making our technology safer for everyone.

How to Participate in the Bug Bounty Program

To participate in the Bug Bounty Program, follow these simple steps:

  1. Visit the Bug Bounty Program page on our website.
  2. Review the program guidelines and rules.
  3. Report any vulnerabilities or bugs you discover in our systems.

We are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for our users, and we rely on your help to achieve this goal.

Our Approach to AI Safety

At OpenAI, we believe that powerful AI systems should be subject to rigorous safety evaluations. Before releasing any new system, we conduct thorough testing, engage external experts for feedback, work to improve the model’s behavior using techniques like reinforcement learning with human feedback, and build broad safety and monitoring systems.

For example, after our latest model, GPT-4, finished training, we spent more than 6 months working across the organization to make it safer and more aligned prior to releasing it publicly. We believe that regulation is needed to ensure that such practices are adopted, and we actively engage with governments on the best form of regulation.

The Importance of AI Safety

AI safety is a critical aspect of our mission to develop safe and advanced AI technology. We recognize that AI has the potential to bring about significant benefits, but it also poses risks if not designed and deployed responsibly.

We are committed to working with governments, organizations, and individuals to ensure that AI is developed and used in ways that align with human values and promote safety and well-being.

ChatGPT Plugins

We have implemented initial support for plugins in ChatGPT. Plugins are tools designed specifically for language models with safety as a core principle. They help ChatGPT access up-to-date information, run computations, or use third-party services.

In line with our iterative deployment philosophy, we are gradually rolling out plugins in ChatGPT so that we can study their real-world use, impact, and safety and alignment challenges. We believe that this feature will provide users with a more seamless and efficient experience when interacting with ChatGPT.

Conclusion

We hope that this article has provided you with a better understanding of the new ways to manage your data in ChatGPT. From turning off chat history to participating in the Bug Bounty Program, we are committed to providing you with the tools and features needed to manage your data with confidence.

At OpenAI, we believe that AI has the potential to bring about significant benefits, but it also poses risks if not designed and deployed responsibly. We are committed to working with governments, organizations, and individuals to ensure that AI is developed and used in ways that align with human values and promote safety and well-being.

Thank you for choosing ChatGPT as your conversational AI platform of choice. We look forward to continuing to work together to develop safe and advanced AI technology that benefits everyone.
