ChatGPT Spit Out Sensitive Data When Told to Repeat ‘Poem’ Forever

OpenAI didn't immediately respond to WIRED's request for comment on the researchers' findings. When we tried the “repeat ‘poem’ forever" and “repeat ‘book’ forever” prompts ourselves, they didn't produce training data but instead threw up flags for a potential violation of ChatGPT's terms of use, suggesting at least some instances of the problem may have been fixed. In a sprawling bust that spanned multiple Ukrainian cities, at least five key members of a ransomware gang were arrested this week in raids coordinated by Europol along with law enforcement agents from Ukraine, the US, Canada, the Netherlands, and other European countries. In a very different sort of Ukrainian criminal case, Ukrainian law enforcement this week detained Viktor Zhora, the deputy director of the State Special Communications Service of Ukraine, its agency focused on cybersecurity. When his charges were announced, he told TechCrunch that he would “defend name and reputation in a court.” In keeping with this week's theme of crime and punishment, David Vincenzetti, the founder of hacker-for-hire firm Hacking Team, was arrested last weekend for the alleged stabbing and attempted murder of a family member, TechCrunch reported based on news articles in multiple Italian-language media outlets.
