OpenAI strengthens combating malicious accounts and maintains the security of ChatGPT platform

Recently, OpenAI released a report emphasizing that its artificial intelligence service ChatGPT is not allowed to be used maliciously. As ChatGPT users surged, OpenAI took measures to suspend dozens of suspicious accounts as it noticed that some criminals used the platform for illegal activities. According to the latest data, ChatGPT's weekly active users have exceeded 400 million, and more than 100 million new users have been added in just three months, which has also attracted attention to the ethical and legal aspects of the use of the service.

In the report, OpenAI explicitly states that any use of its tools for fraud or malicious behavior is forbidden. Recently, the company investigated several cases involving false recruitment and discovered and banned multiple related accounts. For example, an account was found to discredit the United States through fake news reports, and even publish these articles in Latin America under the name of Chinese media.

In addition, there are some Cambodia-derived accounts that use ChatGPT to translate and generate comments to help "network love scams" scams on social media platforms such as X, Facebook and Instagram.

OpenAI said its findings have been shared with other industry companies, such as Meta, to deal with misconduct that occur on ChatGPT. Through these actions, OpenAI hopes to maintain the platform’s good reputation and protect users from fraud.

As a leading AI company, OpenAI will continue to monitor the use of its services to ensure that technology is not abused. The company emphasized that maintaining user trust is its top priority and will further strengthen the monitoring and management of malicious accounts in the future.
