      It would had to have been trained on their passwords and shit for this to be even possible. It can’t even remember its own story points it gave me for a DnD session within the same chat. No way is it spitting out passwords fed to it from one user to another because its not storing them.

        Wow, never realized we had such a weird grammatical construction. What tense is that even called?

          It’s not a single tense (would have - past conditional, had to - past modal, have been - pluperfect), it’s a hypothetical past state being caused by a hypothetical past event, but the trick here is that the “past state” is omitted because it’s contextually read. If you were giving full context it’d read: “If it was spitting out sensitive information, it would have had to have been trained on it.”

          Take that, ESL learners!

            “If it was spitting out sensitive information, it would have had to have been trained on it.”

            I can make it even worse, because the first part of this should be in the subjunctive mood. So it should be:

            “If it were spitting out sensitive information, it would have had to have been trained on it.”

        chat.openai.com I’m assuming. But in the article in even says that openai looked into it, and they think it’s someone stealing the guys account and using it, not other users conversations being seen by him.

    The user, Chase Whiteside, has since changed his password, but he doubted his account was compromised. He said he used a nine-character password with upper- and lower-case letters and special characters.

    Yes, because obviously a 9 character password that’s probably a word or two with special characters swapped and no mention of 2FA is sooo secure /s

    To be clear, I’m not saying that means his account was compromised. That bit just stuck out to me.
