According to the CEO of viral chatbot ChatGPT, there was a bug that allowed some users to view the conversation titles of other users.

Via web-based entertainment locales Reddit and Twitter, clients had shared pictures of talk narratives they said were not theirs.

Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO, stated that the company was "feeling awful," but the "significant" error had since been corrected.However, many users are still concerned about the platform's privacy.

Since its launch in November of last year, millions of people have used ChatGPT to draft messages, compose songs, and even code. The user can return to any conversation they have had with the chatbot at any time by looking at the chat history bar.

Is the world arranged for the approaching man-made intelligence storm?

However, users began to notice conversations that they claimed they had not had with the chatbot appear in their history as early as Monday.

A Reddit user posted a picture of their chat history, which included conversations in Mandarin and titles like "Chinese Socialism Development." 

The business informed Bloomberg on Tuesday that it had temporarily disabled the chatbot late on Monday to correct the error.

Additionally, they claimed that users were unable to access the actual chats.

OpenAI's CEO tweeted that there would be a "specialized posthumous" soon. However, users are concerned about the error because they worry that the tool could reveal personal information about them.

OpenAI appears to have access to user chats, according to the glitch.User data, such as prompts and responses, may be used to continue training the model, according to the company's privacy policy.

However, only after personally identifiable information has been removed is that data utilized.

Additionally, the error occurs just one day after Google unveiled its chatbot Bard to a group of journalists and beta testers.

Google and Microsoft, major OpenAI investors, have been fighting for control of the growing market for AI tools.

Yet, the speed of new item updates and deliveries has many concerned stumbles like these could be destructive or have potentially negative side-effects.
