Is sharing sensitive information (e.g., passwords, financial information) with ChatGPT safe?

No, it is not safe to share sensitive information like passwords, financial details, or personally identifiable information with ChatGPT or any AI chat interface. Why it’s risky:

  • While OpenAI takes privacy seriously, conversations may be reviewed to improve the model, especially if you're using ChatGPT without data controls enabled. 

  • Unlike secure messaging apps, chat interfaces like this one aren’t encrypted for sensitive data exchange.
  • ChatGPT isn’t a secure platform for password storage, banking details, or medical records.
