Geoffrey Hinton, one of the "fathers of AI",
voiced concerns that future AI systems may surpass human intelligence.
In May 2024, OpenAI removed accounts involving the use of ChatGPT by state-backed influence operations such as China's Spamouflage, Russia's
Doppelganger, and Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism.
OpenAI said it has taken steps to effectively clarify and address the issues raised; an age verification tool was implemented to ensure users are at least 13 years old.
In late March 2023, the Italian data protection authority banned ChatGPT in Italy and
opened an investigation. A shadow market has emerged for Chinese users to get access to foreign software tools.
Stanford researchers reported that GPT-4 "passes a rigorous Turing test, diverging from average human behavior chiefly to be more cooperative."
In November 2023, OpenAI released GPT Builder a tool for users
to customize ChatGPT's behavior for a specific use case.
ChatGPT's Mandarin Chinese abilities were lauded, but the ability of the
AI to produce content in Mandarin Chinese in a Taiwanese accent was found to be "less than ideal" due to differences between mainland
Mandarin Chinese and Taiwanese Mandarin. However, no machine translation services match
human expert performance. ChatGPT (based on GPT-4) was better able to translate Japanese
to English when compared to Bing, Bard, and
DeepL Translator in 2023. In 2023, OpenAI worked with a team of 40 Icelandic volunteers to fine-tune ChatGPT's Icelandic conversation skills as a part of Iceland's attempts to preserve the Icelandic language.
