ChatGPT: OpenAI blocks accounts after pro-Russian disinformation campaign
On numerous social media, disinformation posts with a connection to Russia were published. However, the authors have a connection to another country.
OpenAI has blocked several ChatGPT accounts from Russia that were used for a covert disinformation campaign. The US company said in a blog post that the accounts were used to create comments for social media platforms, with instructions to conceal their Russian origin. The operation is believed to be linked to a think tank founded in Israel with connections to the Russian government.
The accounts were detected by Ben Nimmo, who leads a team at OpenAI that searches for campaigns misusing artificial intelligence for disinformation.
