OpenAI's API Chat Log Preservation Order Sparks User Privacy Concerns

A court order requiring OpenAI to preserve API chat data has sparked user panic. Users voiced concerns on LinkedIn and X, arguing it constitutes a serious breach of contract and jeopardizes privacy. Some recommend alternatives like Mistral AI or Google Gemini. OpenAI contends users need control over personal information for freedom of use and believes the court insufficiently considered user concerns. It remains unclear if the court will overturn the order.
