AI will either bring us a uptoia or our extermination as a species. I think it will be the latter.
I figure it is just a way for the tech/social media companies to get even more personal information about you than they already have.
Do chatbots steal your information?how would that work? can you be specific?
thanks.

Do chatbots steal your information?
Data theft is possible if a chatbot does not properly protect customer data using methods like encryption.
Already, the chatbot can write emails indistinguishable from what's written by humans and in any style. The system can generate website content, reviews, press releases, YouTube video scripts—basically everything a malicious actor needs to perpetrate a phishing attack.
alasdairm said:ok. but a human can already write those so there's nothing inherent in the chatgpt technology that makes it inherently more of a threat.
I am not paranoid. Just cautious. I tried using it on my tablet, and the website did not work.^ is whining about triggering technology on a message board also a sign of emotional weakness?
possibly. but a chatbot is not the only possible implementation of the underlying technology.
and it's quite possible to mitigate the risk.
sure. but if it's possible for something to happen then it's also possible for it not to happen.
ok. but a human can already write those so there's nothing inherent in the chatgpt technology that makes it inherently more of a threat.
your initial comment implied there was something specific to the technology that made it more of a threat.
that said, there's nothing wrong with a little generalised paranoia

I did not try it. I just went to the website to see more about the company or who owns it, and how it works or what it does. Then I was distracted so I did not get it to work or ask it questions.if you think it's a way for big tech and big bad media to gather your personal information why would you even try it? what precautions did you take?
just curious...

When I first saw Terminator and then T2 and Ahhnold's muscular nude body in both films, that is the moment I became woke!micorsoft researchers just published a paper stating that GPT4 is the sparks of AGI and its coming but its incomplete atm.
Robot overlords are coming to enslave us all curostey of bill gates
I did not try it.
I think the only way at the time being is to not have it doing anything with personal email or any personal account. Instead you should use this 'tool" for work purposes only..or make a different outlook address. But wtf do I know? It's probably got a life of it's own by now.fair enough. but you tried to try it. i am still interested in what precautions you took to prevent it gathering your personal information?
