If you paste plaintext passwords into ChatGPT, the problem is not ChatGPT; the problem is you.

[-] R00bot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 65 points 11 months ago

Well tbf chatGPT also shouldn't remember and then leak those passwords lol.

[-] Ganbat@lemmyonline.com 58 points 11 months ago

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.

[-] narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee 49 points 11 months ago

Well, that's even worse.

[-] wildginger@lemmy.myserv.one 35 points 11 months ago

........ That shouldnt be happening, regardless of chat content

[-] Ganbat@lemmyonline.com 9 points 11 months ago

Well, yeah, but the point is, ChatGPT didn't "remember and then leak" anything, the web service exposed people's chat history.

[-] wildginger@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 11 months ago

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?

[-] topinambour_rex@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

How ? How it should be implemented? It's just a llm. It has no true intelligence.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

If it's not trained on user data it cannot leak it

Able to have a reflection.

A huge value add of.chatgpt is that you can have running, contextual conversation. That requires memory.

[-] GamingChairModel@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

All of these LLMs should have walls between individual users, though, so that the chat history of one user is never accessible to any other user. Applying some kind of restriction to the LLM training and how chats are used is a conversation we can have, but the article and the example given is a much, much simpler problem that a user checking his own chat history was able to see other user's chats.

It doesn't actually have memory in that sense. It can only remember things that are in the training data and within its limited context (4-32k tokens, depending on model). But when you send a message, ChatGPT does a semantic search of everything in the conversation and tries to fit the relevant parts inside the context, if there's room.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I'm familiar, it's just easiest for the layman to consider the model having "memory" as historical search is a lot like it at arm's length

[-] psud@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

Hey chatGPT, is hunter2 a good password?

[-] konalt@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I'm sorry, but as an AI language model, I cannot tell you about the effectiveness of "*******" as a password.

[-] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 1 points 11 months ago

It's an old meme, but it checks out.

[-] BrianTheeBiscuiteer@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Shit. Guess I gotta stop using "Bosco".
