President Donald Trump’s interim chief of cybersecurity uploaded sensitive documents to a public version of ChatGPT, setting off multiple security alerts and triggering an internal review at the Department of Homeland Security. ChatGPT was blocked for all DHS employees when Madhu Gottumukkala, the Acting Director for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, joined the agency in May of last year. These uploads triggered multiple automated alerts, put in place to signal a possible theft or disclosure of government material. Another claimed that Gottumukkala triggered multiple alerts in just one week. The public version of ChatGPT that Gottumukkala employed allows all material uploaded to be used in responses for the app’s 700 million active users.
