Samsung reportedly sent a memo on Monday prohibiting the usage of ChatGPT in one of the company's largest departments. According to a Samsung internal paper that Bloomberg has referred to, the business is worried regarding the way artificial intelligence programmes notably ChatGPT and Google Bard manage information about users.
After staff members unintentionally exposed private information to ChatGPT, Samsung reportedly implemented an internal prohibition on generative AI tools. The South Korean IT giant reportedly acted after learning that one of its employees had posted confidential source code to the AI portal.
The company also points out that data supplied to AI platforms is maintained on other servers, making it challenging to access and remove, and as a result, may end up being made public to other users. The company recently ran a survey internally which suggested that 65% security threats are generated with these AI tools.

“Interest in generative AI platforms such as ChatGPT has been growing internally and externally,” the tech enterprise told its employees. The organisation added, “While this interest focuses on the usefulness and efficiency of these platforms, there are also growing concerns about security risks presented by generative AI”. A Samsung representative confirmed that a memo was sent last week.
Samsung's new policy prohibits employees from utilising generative AI software on their own phones, tablets, PCs, or internal network. Naturally, the policy has no impact on Samsung's customers. In fact, the SwiftKey keyboard integration has made the ChatGPT-powered BingAI a crucial component of Samsung phones. OneUI comes preconfigured with the new Bing AI in Microsoft's SwiftKey keyboard.

“We ask that you diligently adhere to our security guidelines and failure to do so may result in a breach or compromise of company information resulting in disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment,” read the memo that was circulated to the staff.
There have been reports floating around that suggest that Samsung is developing its own AI capabilities for software development, document translation, and summarization. These tools appear to only be available for usage within the firm. It's unclear whether Samsung will offer any consumer-facing generative AI products. At least for the time being, the corporation has made no such declaration.
