"Rapid Adoption of ChatGPT in US Workplaces Raises Concerns"

Despite concerns over security and intellectual property leaks, a Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that many workers in the US are using ChatGPT, a chatbot program that utilizes generative AI, to assist with basic tasks at work. The poll found that 28% of respondents regularly use ChatGPT, even though only 22% said their employers explicitly allowed such external tools. Companies worldwide are grappling with how to effectively leverage ChatGPT while mitigating potential risks. Some firms have embraced the technology, while others have implemented bans or restrictions. Security concerns arise from the potential for data leaks and the reproduction of proprietary information by similar AI systems.
