Asking about Chatgpt and Proprietary Software

[hagopbul]

Hello all:

i was reviewing matlab related book few days ago , and used Chatgpt to explain a code which was mentioned in the book , chatgpt explained it , but i felt that it assumed that i am sharing the code with it , not posting it for the program to read it and generate an explanation , which sounded wired , like the program is using a legal terms ? why ?
did any one noticed that or i am exaggerating ?

will that means if a scientist is working on a code in some lab , and he posted part of his work to chatgpt for review will mean that chatgpt or its company can copy it ?
should the scientific community be notified about this ?

Best Regards
H

What do the terms of use say? I'm sure they make it clear if they are recording and using the conversations to hone the model(and why wouldn't they do that?).

i didnt read the terms of use yet ,
why didnt they do that ?
maybe some one posted a code with some mistakes , the program repost that code for other one who is not expert in the field of computer programming , after copying and pasting the code as it is , it may create problems

maybe the scientist dont know that the program are copying the code , for example another compnay use the program and ask about a code and that scientist code be printed on the screen

If you ever feel nervous about using ChatGPT because of privacy concerns, there are free alternatives that he could use to review the stuff on his own laptop or desktop. For myself, I use GPT4All by Nomic, which is free and open source. I use this app on my computer to talk about deep stuff, such as science, religion and TV shows. It can learn PDFs and spreadsheets (supposedly, but I have not tried the latter), and is a front-end for both open-source and closed-source AI models such as Llama 11B, Mistral 7B or any other AI model of your choosing.

Just make sure your computer has decent RAM. The app can recommend AI models that are suitable for the amount of RAM on your machine. My computer has 8 GB of RAM, so it recommended me smaller models (under 7 billion parameters).

The stuff in red are questions that other people have asked me, or sensitive political topics, because as a centrist moderate, I have asked the AI to compare 1970s platforms with modern day platforms. The machine managed to recommend some good UK period pieces, and cited its sources, all while running locally on my CPU.
