OpenAI focuses on dangers that make their AI seem more advanced than it is, and ignore dangers that don&amp;#x27;t play well to the press (like clientside validation). I&amp;#x27;m not even sure it&amp;#x27;s standard &amp;quot;we care about your security&amp;quot; company talk, I think it&amp;#x27;s mostly designed just to make people think of GPT as more cutting edge.&lt;p&gt;The &amp;quot;GPT paid someone to solve a captcha&amp;quot; release seems like pure publicity stunt to me, given that solving captchas by pretending to be blind is something other systems can already do without human help. But it played well in press releases.&lt;p&gt;----&lt;p&gt;[0]: To be fair, they have been focusing on alignment, but I honestly don&amp;#x27;t think alignment is a security measure, I think it&amp;#x27;s a general performance measure. We haven&amp;#x27;t seen strong evidence that alignment can stop prompt injection attacks, so I think mostly OpenAI mostly just cares about the potential negative press from their AI randomly insulting people.</text><parent_chain><item><author>koolba</author><text>&amp;gt; It is possible to use these unreleased plugins by setting up match-and-replace rules through an HTTP proxy.
