Inside info | Samsung worker fed company secrets to ChatGPT so it could make a presentation

Samsung has reportedly limited usage of ChatGPT in the workplace after employees input confidential company information into the system.

The Economist Korea reports that three separate cases have occurred in which Samsung employees fed sensitive information to the AI-powered chat platform.

One example cited by the publication involved a worker inputting confidential source code into the chat function so that it could be checked for errors.

Another reportedly asked ChatGPT to optimise some further code, while a third is said to have asked the platform to turn a recording of an internal meeting into notes for a presentation.
