Don't do that - it violates ChatGPT's TOS which could result in a lawsuit against the model developers.

According to OpenAI's terms of service, I'm the owner of the input (i.e., my question), which implies that they can use, modify, and distribute my input for the purpose of operating and improving the ChatGPT system, but they can't do anything to prevent me from using my data in other systems.

It appears they have changed the ToS. It used to restrict usage of output.

I can't use the output of ChatGPT to train other systems, but I can use my input however I want because, according to the TOS, I'm the owner of it.

Are you using the output of ChatGPT to determine which inputs you copy across and which ones you don't? If not, I agree that you are probably in the clear. Otherwise idk.

No, I don't, because even if chatGPT could answer my question correctly, that doesn't mean that another assistant could.

Therefore, when I come up with a question that, from my point of view could be challenging to answer by a virtual assistant, and regardless of whether I have searched Google/Reddit/StackOverflow/ChatGPT/... for the answer, I end up typing it on OpenAssistant, (again, just my question).
