OpenAI plans to train models on Daybreak Blue cybersecurity session data that was previously off-limits

Starting November 29, OpenAI will use Daybreak Blue session data to train its models, according to an email to Trusted Access program members; this data was previously excluded from training even when users had the "improve the model for everyone" setting turned off. After swift backlash, OpenAI sent a second email promising a separate opt-out, while interactions flagged during safety reviews can still be used for safety purposes. Researchers worry about a repeat of the Buckmaster-Alpöge case, in which mathematicians Tristan Buckmaster and Levent Alpöge uploaded Navier-Stokes equation drafts to OpenAI's Codex and OpenAI soon presented its own proof but denied using their inputs for training.
