Ever whispered secrets to ChatGPT? Spoiler: It's taking notes.
Why it matters:
Your ChatGPT convos are joining a massive data potluck for AI training. But before you panic, remember: your chats are just a drop in the digital ocean.
The big picture:
ChatGPT's been binging on 570GB of text data—that's 300 billion words, folks. Your witty banter? It's like tossing a pebble into the Grand Canyon.
By the numbers:
- 100 million weekly active ChatGPT users
- 300 billion words in training data
- 355 years to train on a single GPU (but who's that patient?)
Overheard at the water cooler:
"Dude, I told ChatGPT my darkest secrets. Think it'll spill the beans to my ex?"
Yes, but:
Worried about privacy? There's a workaround to keep your convos off the AI menu. Stay tuned for the how-to in part two!
The bottom line:
Your ChatGPT chats are helping shape AI's future, but they're not exactly front-page news. So chat on, but maybe save the really juicy stuff for your human BFF.
