ChatGPT Secrets Could Haunt You In Court | Sam Altman Himself WARY Of AI Accessing His Data

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has admitted he’s cautious about what personal data he shares with AI—warning users that ChatGPT conversations may not be legally protected. With no current U.S. case of AI chat data being used against someone in court, legal scholars believe it's only a matter of time. As AI tools grow more integrated in daily life, so do concerns about how shared data—sometimes private or sensitive—could be misused. From training data controversies to legal filing disasters, the legal risks of interacting with AI are mounting. #ChatGPT #SamAltman #AILegalRisks #AIPrivacy #OpenAI #AIWarnings #LegalTech #AIEthics #DataPrivacy #AIConversations #ChatData #AIRegulation #AIConcerns #TechNews #PrivacyMatters #AIUsage #AltmanWarning #ChatGPTRisks #ArtificialIntelligence #DinersteinVGoogle #MataCase #Deepfakes #TechPolicy #DigitalPrivacy #AIinCourt #FutureOfAI #AIandLaw #LegalDebate #DataSecurity #AIChat Also Read Is ChatGPT Down Globally?

Pentagon In Chaos: Chinese Hackers Hit US Nuclear Weapons Design Group | Shocking Details

In a shocking cyber breach, Chinese state-sponsored hackers reportedly infiltrated the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) by exploiting critical vulnerabilities in Microsoft’s SharePoint software. The attack—linked to groups like Linen Typhoon, Violet Typhoon, and Storm-2603—marks one of the most serious intrusions into America’s nuclear weapons design systems to date. Although no classified data appears to have been stolen, the breach has triggered alarm at the Pentagon and within U.S. cybersecurity circles. #PentagonHack #CyberAttack #ChineseHackers #NuclearSecurityBreach #USNationalSecurity #CyberWarfare #HackingCrisis #EspionageAlert #CriticalInfrastructure #DigitalColdWar #CyberDefense #GlobalTensions ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.420~

Microsoft admitted to using teams in China for technical assistance but assured that no China-based staff will be involved moving forward.

WW3 Warning: ‘We Will Deploy…’ Russia’s CHILLING Warning Against U.S | Putin Lifts Missile Ban [Video]

WW3 Warning: ‘We Will Deploy…’ Russia’s CHILLING Warning Against U.S | Putin Lifts Missile Ban

In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory. #RussiaMissiles #MedvedevWarning #MissileMoratorium #INFwithdrawal #NATOvsRussia #DmitryMedvedev #GlobalTensions #RussiaNATOClash #MilitaryEscalation #RussiaArmsRace #PutinMoves #NewColdWar #NuclearThreats #RussiaShortRangeMissiles #RussianForeignPolicy #GeopoliticalCrisis #EuropeSecurity #USRussiaTensions #ExpectFurtherSteps #KremlinStatement Also Read War between France-Germany, Elon Musk will become US president: Predictions by close Putin aide :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/war-between-france-germany-elon-musk-will-become-us-president-predictions-by-close-putin-aide-3504786.html?ref=DMDesc Post Putin’s announcement on constitutional reforms, Russian PM steps down :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/post-putins-announcement-on-constitutional-reforms-russian-pm-steps-down-3015280.html?ref=DMDesc No visa needed for Indians to visit Russia's far east :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/no-visa-needed-indians-visit-russia-s-far-east-2408596.html?ref=DMDesc
