OpenAI, the rising artificial intelligence company, announced that it has indefinitely banned accounts using its applications like the ChatGPT AI assistant for espionage activities. These accounts were found to be directly associated with countries such as China, Russia, and North Korea, aiming to conduct black propaganda activities. Additionally, the fact that these accounts had names inspired by movies like “Charcoal Typhoon,” “Crimson Sandstorm,” and “Emerald Sleet” also drew attention.

OpenAI takes a stand against espionage activities!

It has been revealed that this battle against espionage activities initiated by OpenAI is being carried out with significant support from Microsoft, the company’s largest investor. OpenAI stated that they will continue their investigation efforts against agent accounts, which were found to use OpenAI applications for purposes such as translation, finding coding errors, and accessing open-source software.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman mentioned in his statement regarding the matter that they are in exchange of information with other stakeholders in the industry and will take all necessary measures to ensure that their designed artificial intelligence applications are not misused by malicious individuals. Especially with the recent significant advancement in the company, particularly with the chat robot ChatGPT, it is likely that OpenAI will continue to make headlines in the coming days.
