The big question should be “are recruiters posting your resume to ChatGPT? If so, any personal information is no longer private, as ChatGPT will probably absorb it as additional training material.

It would probably be through a third party service that uses chatgpt

I don't think the models absorb new information from questions, do they?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

I'd be surprised if they didn't, to be honest.

They do not. My understanding is that the models are static.

Their settings imply that they do

I guess I should be a bit more specific. There's no feedback loop into the currently running model. They could potentially use that data to tune or train future versions of the model, but there's no mechanism to live update the model weights in place. Or at least not to my knowledge.

The only things that'll make a difference in the same version of the model are the system prompt, context window and prompt.

Yeah, its still trained on the data it's fed

Not sure if it will actually work, but might as well. Not like I'm getting a lot of interviews now 💀
