OpenAI held a major event showcasing advancements in its ChatGPT and other generative AI (genAI) tools, but failed to deliver on a previously announced privacy feature. The Media Manager, intended to allow creators to opt out of their content being used to train AI models, was promised for 2025 but has seen minimal progress, raising concerns about OpenAI's commitment to user privacy.
OpenAI held a massive ChatGPT-centric event before Christmas, making several key announcements for ChatGPT and other genAI tools it currently offers. The reasoning ChatGPT model o1 and the text-to-video Sora service got public releases. OpenAI also demoed the o3 model coming later this year, released Canvas, and even made ChatGPT available via WhatsApp texting. What OpenAI failed to do is keep a privacy promise made earlier this year. The company announced a Media Manager feature back in May.
'To be honest, I don't remember anyone working on it,' they said. Also, a person who doesn't work at OpenAI but coordinates work with the AI firm said they discussed the tool with the company but haven't received any updates. TechCrunch also notes that an OpenAI legal team member involved with Media Manager transitioned to a part-time consultant role. None of this comes directly from OpenAI. Insiders who shared information might not have access to the bigger picture.
