Congress issues new ChatGPT guidelines focused on privacy

The House of Representatives is implementing new guidelines for congressional offices using ChatGPT, according to a memo issued by Chief Administrative Officer Catherine L. Szpindor.

Staffers will only be allowed to use the $20-per-month ChatGPT Plus, which offers better privacy with an option not to store chats used to train the AI. They should only enter "non-sensitive" data and never "blocks of text that have not already been made public." Use is limited to "research and evaluation only," and offices must enable privacy settings.
