Do you know what you agreed to when you clicked “accept” on Chat GPT or any other Open Ai service?

Most of us don’t… And even if we read it, that doesn’t mean that we understand what it means.

There’s a lot to it, and if you use any Open Ai services, especially Chat GPT, you may want to at least read the legal parts. It’s not just about protecting Open Ai, it’s about understanding what role YOU play in protecting Open Ai, legally.

It’s important to know what you’re working with and how it could potentially get you into trouble if you’re not careful.

I have pasted the original legal sections 7 and 8 below, but here are a couple of important takeaways (in layman's terms):

According to the agreement, the user (you) of these services is responsible for any information they choose to share.

The Open Ai services are able to protect themselves by making the user responsible for anything they share with the world.
