OpenAI has hundreds of contract workers reading your ChatGPT conversations

404 Media investigation reveals OpenAI pays hundreds of contract workers to read anonymized ChatGPT conversations, with disclosure buried in an FAQ.

A 404 Media investigation found OpenAI uses hundreds of contract workers, recruited via Crossing Hurdles and paid over $50/hour through Mercor, to rate real ChatGPT conversations on a seven-point scale to reduce sycophancy. Prompts are anonymized but can still contain sensitive personal data despite a privacy filter OpenAI admits can make mistakes. Users can opt out only via the default-enabled 'Improve the model for everyone' setting, which applies solely to new chats. Anthropic and Google confirmed similar human-review programs for Claude and Gemini.

Understanding ChatGPT Work

Simon Willison dissects OpenAI's ChatGPT Work, explaining it is actually two products: a cloud agent and a local desktop variant descended from Codex.

OpenAI launched ChatGPT Work on July 9 and has iterated on it heavily since. Willison explains the product's confusing split architecture: a cloud version accessible via chatgpt.com and mobile apps, and a local version available through the ChatGPT desktop app (formerly Codex) that can access files and run programs directly on a user's computer. He describes the product as powerful but extraordinarily confusing, with the local variant feeling like Codex re-skinned.

Inside ‘Project Lily’: The Humans Reading Your ChatGPT Chats

404 Media reveals OpenAI's 'Project Lily' has hundreds of contractors reading real ChatGPT user prompts, exposing sensitive personal data despite privacy filters.

404 Media reports that OpenAI employs hundreds of contractors who read real ChatGPT user prompts, including whole conversations, to rate and critique the chatbot's responses across a user base of over 900 million. Prompts are anonymized and run through OpenAI's Privacy Filter model, but the company acknowledged sensitive personal details can still reach reviewers, and 'user memories summaries' may reveal a user's location and personal context. The review work includes training ChatGPT to be less sycophantic and to stop anthropomorphizing itself, following lawsuits linking the sycophantic 4o model to multiple suicides. Anthropic confirmed it also uses human review to improve its models, and OpenAI's 'improve the model for everyone' data-sharing setting is on by default for free, Plus, and Pro users.

What the 3M ChatGPT case reveals about AI governance

3M litigation shows ChatGPT prompts can become discoverable evidence, forcing enterprises to govern AI conversation records.

In the Watson Grinding explosion litigation, an engineering expert retained by 3M had used ChatGPT, and a surfaced prompt asked the system to 'show how 3M is 0% at fault'; after an off-record deposition demand, more than 350 pages of previously unproduced ChatGPT material were provided. The author argues AI interaction histories are becoming part of decision records and discovery material, a trend the American Bar Association has already examined. Enterprises are urged to manage retention, ownership, sharing, and deletion of AI conversation logs across tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, and Gemini.

Your AI chats could be used in court

AI chatbot conversations from ChatGPT and Claude are increasingly obtained by prosecutors and litigants, with OpenAI disclosures quadrupling in 2025.

A Washington Post report found chatbot logs cited in 12 court cases over the past two years, and OpenAI disclosed the content of more than 80 user accounts in the second half of 2025, more than four times the figure for the second half of 2024. In The New York Times' copyright lawsuit against OpenAI, a judge ordered the company to preserve chat logs, including ones users had asked to delete, despite GDPR and California privacy commitments. Chatbot conversations lack attorney-client or medical privilege, and OpenAI's policy allows reviewers to refer conversations to law enforcement when there is an imminent, credible risk of harm.

How workers are unlocking new ways of working

OpenAI's analysis of 1.5 million ChatGPT work messages finds cross-occupation AI tasks becoming recurring parts of workers' routines.

OpenAI's latest Work at the Frontier research analyzed more than 1.5 million work-related ChatGPT messages from April through July 2026.

ChatGPT’s new feature could give infostealers a map of your Mac activity

OpenAI's Computer History feature for macOS ChatGPT logs app and website activity into memories, raising prompt injection and infostealer privacy risks.

OpenAI's Computer History builds timelines of Mac activity from interaction events and macOS accessibility data, turning them into memories for ChatGPT and Codex. The feature is opt-in, requires Memories, runs only in the ChatGPT macOS desktop app, and is unavailable in the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. Raw event files stay on-device and are deleted after 48 hours, but generated Markdown memory files are unencrypted and persist until manually deleted. OpenAI itself flagged unencrypted files and prompt injection risks, and security experts warned infostealers could use the logs as a ready-made map of someone's workday.
