SAMSUNG EMPLOYEES UNWITTINGLY LEAKED COMPANY SECRET DATA BY USING CHATGPT

April 10, 2023  By Pierluigi Paganini




SAMSUNG EMPLOYEES HAVE UNWITTINGLY LEAKED TOP SECRET DATA BY PROVIDING THEM TO
THE POPULAR CHATBOT SERVICE CHATGPT.

Samsung employees have shared internal documents, including meeting notes and
source code, with the popular chatbot service ChatGPT. ChatGPT uses data
provided by the users to train itself and build its experience, with the risk
that this data can be available to other users that will query the popular
chatbot.

Samsung engineers used ChatGPT to assess the company source code, they asked the
chatbot to optimize test sequences for identifying faults in the chips they were
designing. According to the website Techradar, in just under a month, the
company suffered three data leaks caused by its employees leaking sensitive
information via ChatGPT.

“In another case, an employee used ChatGPT to convert meeting notes into a
presentation, the contents of which were obviously not something Samsung would
have liked external third parties to have known.” reported TechRadar.

The multinational IT firm has decided to start developing its own AI for
internal use. 

Samsung Electronics is warning its employees of the potential risks associated
with the use of ChatGPT, explaining that there is no way to prevent the leak of
the data provided to OpenAI’s chatbot service.

It is not clear if Samsung has requested the deletion of the data provided by
its workers to OpenAI.

Early this month, the Italian Data Protection Authority, Garante Privacy,
temporarily banned ChatGPT due to the illegal collection of personal data and
the absence of systems for verifying the age of minors.

The Authority pointed out that OpenAI does not alert users that it is collecting
their data.

According to the announcement, there is no legal basis underpinning the massive
collection and processing of personal data to ‘train’ the algorithms on which
the platform relies.
