OpenAI Security Debacles: Breaches, Privacy Fails, and a Mass Exodus
OpenAI’s security woes deepen as it emerges the startup didn’t report a 2023 breach and its ChatGPT macOS app disregarded user privacy. The breach secrecy and privacy missteps have cast a shadow over the AI firm’s safety reputation.
Hot Take:
OpenAI should consider rebranding to “ClosedAI” with their secretive antics, and maybe hire a few more cybersecurity experts while they’re at it. Who knew AI could be so… human?
Key Points:
- OpenAI kept a 2023 data breach under wraps, not informing public or law enforcement.
- MacOS version of ChatGPT had user privacy issues, storing conversations in plain text.
- New vulnerabilities in Xerox printers and other devices reported.
- FIA (Formula 1) suffered a data breach due to phishing attacks.
- New ransomware group “Volcano Demon” is on the rise, targeting Windows systems.
