> a request does not guarantee that information about you will be removed from ChatGPT outputs

Oh i am pretty sure that if you dont remove all data you’ll pay for it. Looking forward to hefty fines for openai.

I think you'd have to be a GDPR lawyer to understand the implications of that. It can get a little complicated.

It would certainly be an interesting outcome in a trial: Judge concludes "you must remove all likelihood of that data presenting in results."

Cue re-running the training model a little bit more frequently than they'd like... At least it would certainly become opt-in very quickly, which of course it should have been from the start.

Isn't the request to delete the data? Just removing it from the outputs wouldn't be sufficient anyway.

The request is to delete from future training data. They don't remove it from outputs or address the fact that the model(s) has already been trained on the old data.

Yeah that won't fly. Data needs removing from all output, current or old.
