Using public ChatGPT can expose your company's proprietary data because inputs may be stored or used by the service. Set clear policies for AI use, and consider private Azure-hosted deployments instead. Don't rely on ChatGPT for calculations or risk assessment it wasn't designed to handle.
The first one I think is mainly a risk with OpenAI's ChatGPT, the public model that everyone goes to. And I actually think every single company out there should have a policy as well as a strategy around the public ChatGPT as well as any private instance that they create in their company, because I don't think most people are aware that when you put your information into the public, you know, ChatGPT, that you're kind of giving away your information now. Even just to have policies around the use of it is highly important for people to be aware of because they're not aware that they're making that public available. Now, there are models out there because like I said, when I was at Microsoft and they made their big investment in OpenAI, they got access to the GPT models of which they built into their Azure environment. You can have all the protection that you're normally used to with your data built into an environment. I'm sure other companies will come out with competitive versions, But the point is you're building your own internal ChatGPT rather than the publicly available. So if you go that route, you would just have the same normal risk concerns that you would have with any of your other data stored in any of your other databases that you're utilizing. But the other part is the risk of the answers. And this is where my biggest education I have to most people is misapplication of ChatGPT. They're utilizing it to make calculations or even risk determination when it's not designed for that. So then you end up having people, you know, make poor decisions based off of an improper understanding of how it works.
