In this presentation, Enrico Schaefer warns developers and users about the significant privacy and security risks associated with third‑party GPTs available through the GPT Store. He highlights that OpenAI does not disclose whether user inputs and model outputs are being harvested to further train its models. For users who input confidential, proprietary, or client‑specific information, there is an obligation to ensure that such data is not repurposed for training. The talk emphasizes the need for developers to understand these hidden risks before launching a GPT and for users to be cautious about the data they share with third‑party models.
