    Loosely related, you may want to check your own privacy settings at

    I just realized I've been happily "improving the model for everyone"...

      That OpenAI setting helps, but there is a better way to do it. To completely opt-out of training, submit a request via the OpenAI privacy portal.

      Visit this website https://privacy.openai.com/policies/en/ , click "Make a Privacy Request", choose "Do not train on my content", and complete the form. That submits a formal objection to training on your data, as required by GDPR/your local legislation.

        Haha. I am 100% these companies will ignore this if they choose to. Just as they played fast and loose with copyright rules.

        They would do it, the say “ah sorry chaps, impossible to extract it from the dataset by now, anyway we anonymized it so can’t tell what’s what, and we can’t risk losing to China. Oh look - did you see Superman fly outside?”.

    This post is out of date. OpenAI quietly updated the references on their paper earlier today and added several authors.

      The main claim, that "they do not seem to have any mathematicians capable of understanding what they put out", was also corroborated by Sebastien (OpenAI) who explained they don't have any experts on Navier-Stokes.

    > our hypodissipative result (which is not public), but as I understand it part of their training data

    How did it become part of their training data if it wasn't public? /confused

      This is speculation right now. The idea would be that if someone used the product and granted training rights, which is the default for many subscription levels, then some knowledge would have been imparted into the general weights of the new model.

      oAI has made clear they did not specifically pull in any user data to context for this run.

      One of the researchers was using the product. They train on your private interactions unless you explicitly opt out in the settings.
