Hallucinations
- The most important issue is that ChatGPT says wrong things that look very real and true
- You get used to those and have a sense what is true and what is not
- Principle - imagine how many times it was mentioned on the internet. Like people learning something.
- Kid on a tennis court
Copyright Issues
- ChatGPT has been trained on pretty much the entire web, which means it ingested copyrighted materials. Which means the output will have a mix of copyrighted materials, and you are at risk if publishing this content.
Legal
- If a third party frivolously sues Microsoft, even without basis, just for sport, in connection with your AI-generated product, you must cover the costs of Microsoft's legal defense in that case.
- For example, you use AI to create a character in a video game, the game is successful, but Disney notices that your character resembles Mickey Mouse and they start to sue Microsoft.
- The bill for Microsoft's legal defense could be charged to you.
This could amount to millions, only to later find out that your character is more of a cat than a mouse, justice prevails, and in the meantime, you go bankrupt.
Privacy Considerations
- ChatGPT is generally not private, which means any data you write in chat may appear in some other person’s chat around the world at a later time.
- There is an option to be private, but you have to turn off all your chats
- ChatGPT Team is “private”
- Also, by default all prompts that go through API are private and will not be used for training the model.
- Real privacy if you deploy model on Azure
Ethical Considerations
- You may think this is dangerous and AGI may spell the end of humanity
