Aug. 29 (UPI) -- Anthropic plans to start training its artificial intelligence models with user data, one day after announcing a hacker used Claude to identify 17 companies vulnerable to attack and obtained sensitive information.
The company is asking all users of Claude to decide by Sept. 28 whether they want their conversations used for the process. Anthropic will retain data for up to five years, according to a blog post by the company on Thursday.
Anthropic, a public AI research and development company headquartered in San Francisco, was founded in 2021 by seven OpenAI leaders and researchers who left because of disagreements over safety policies. OpenAI is a rival company.
In 2023, Amazon invested $4 billion and Google $2 billion in the company.
