SNIPPETS

🔓Researchers Get Private Data from ChatGPT. A group of researchers found a way to get personal and training data out of ChatGPT. They did this by telling the AI to keep saying "poem" over and over. They discovered that ChatGPT can give out sensitive details like people's names, contact information, and exact text from its training. This shows a bigger worry about privacy and safety with AI models.

🔍 A recent study by Amazon Web Services reveals that AI skills can raise salaries by 35%. Surveying 3,297 workers and 1,340 companies in the US, the study showed:

  • 88% of workers believe they'll use AI in their jobs by 2028.

  • 84% think AI will impact their careers.

  • Employers predict a 35% salary rise for AI-skilled employees.
