OpenAI bans Chinese accounts using ChatGPT to edit code for social media surveillance
OpenAI has banned the accounts of a group of Chinese users who had attempted to use ChatGPT to debug and edit code for an AI social media surveillance tool, the company said Friday. The campaign, which OpenAI calls Peer Review, saw the group prompt ChatGPT to generate sales pitches for a program those documents suggest was designed to monitor anti-Chinese sentiment on X, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and other platforms. The operation appears to have been particularly interested in spotting calls for protests against human rights violations in China, with the intent of sharing those insights with the country's authorities. "This network consisted of ChatGPT accounts that operated in a time pattern consistent with mainland Chinese business hours, prompted our models in Chinese, and used our tools with a volume and variety consistent with manual prompting, rather than automation," said OpenAI. "The operators used our models to proofread claims that their insights had been sent to Chinese embassies abroad, and to intelligence agents monitoring protests in countries including the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom." According to Ben Nimmo, a principal investigator with OpenAI, this was the first time the company had uncovered an AI tool of this kind. "Threat actors sometimes give us a glimpse of what they are doing in other parts of the internet because of the way they use our AI models," Nimmo told The New York Times. See for yourself — The Yodel is the go-to source for daily news, entertainment and feel-good stories. By signing up, you agree to our Terms and Privacy Policy. Much of the code for the surveillance tool appears to have been based on an open-source version of one of Meta's Llama models. The group also appears to have used ChatGPT to generate an end-of-year performance review where it claims to have written phishing emails on behalf of clients in China. "Assessing the impact of this activity would require inputs from multiple stakeholders, including operators of any open-source models who can shed a light on this activity," OpenAI said of the operation's efforts to use ChatGPT to edit code for the AI social media surveillance tool. Separately, OpenAI said it recently banned an account that used ChatGPT to generate social media posts critical of Cai Xia, a Chinese political scientist and dissident who lives in the US in exile. The same group also used the chatbot to generate articles in Spanish critical of the US. These articles were published by "mainstream" news organizations in Latin America and often attributed to either an individual or a Chinese company.

Report criticises council's 'culture of secrecy'
External auditors have called for more openness in a Surrey council's decision-making after some members described a "culture of secrecy". A critical report presented to councillors has raised a "significant weakness" in how it makes decisions. A recent change to the authority's constitution has also been criticised for not being publicly discussed, reports the Local Democracy Reporting Service. The council's Senior Leadership Team (SLT) said it would continue working to provide as much transparency as possible. Quoting the Local Government Association (LGA) Peer Review from March 2024, the report said there was a "universal frustration and confusion around the lack of transparency through the decision-making process". It concluded there was "an immediate need to make it clear and transparent how decisions are made in a committee system". But no action seems to have been taken, with external auditors finding the council had updated its constitution in a way that "was not fully discussed in public meetings and not fully transparent", according to the report. In response, the council's management said: "The senior leadership team believes the council is transparent in its reporting and through committees." Regarding the issue of the constitution, it said it was "subject to advice and was not suitable for public discussion". Speaking for the senior management team, the director of corporate cervices told a meeting of the council's audit and scrutiny committee the team completely understood the need for transparency. "We'll continue to work to provide that as much as possible," he added. Follow BBC Surrey on Facebook, on X. Send your story ideas to southeasttoday@ or WhatsApp us on 08081 002250.
