Microsoft-backed OpenAI disables ChatGPT history feature temporarily on privacy bug
Leon Neal


OpenAI, which is backed in part by billions from Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), has temporarily disabled the history feature on the service after some users reported seeing other usersâ conversations.
The issue first appeared early Monday and the company initially shut down the service as a whole. However, it was partially restored Monday night, though a company spokesman told Bloomberg only titles of the content were visible and not the context of the conversation.

Last week, OpenAI announced its new GPT-4 large language model, pointing out the new model is capable of scoring better on the SAT exam than more than 90% of all people.
In January, Microsoft (MSFT) made what was described as a "multi-billion dollar, multi-year" investment in OpenAI.
One month later, the tech giant started integrating ChatGPT technology into its Bing search engine and Edge browser.
