Samsung !bans! generative AI tools like ChatGPT

It was reported yesterday that Samsung has banned internal use of generative AI tools like ChatGPT, and for exactly the kinds of reasons I have been discussing in these videos. They have information they would like to control, and this is difficult if employees send that information to a third-party like OpenAI that has yet to prove an ability to protect it from criminals. Privacy-enhancing technologies, perhaps homomorphic encryption and federated learning in this example especially, are the hand-in-glove solution to this problem, and they even clean up some of the ethical issues as well.
