Govt to provide AI training to willing MLAs, says Mahana
As per the plan, training will be provided by IIT-Kanpur during the upcoming Monsoon session or at the end of the session, sources in UP Vidhan Sabha secretariat said. Officials unwilling to be named said the imparting of AI training would be optional for the MLAs. The idea is to make the MLAs aware about the latest technology so that they can use it in their day to day working.
"The training module will include elaborating about its effectiveness in drafting bills, identifying legal wranglings for comparing the bills with that of other states," officials said.
The AI use will also help the MLAs in saving old records related to House debates and searching various reports and related documents and data, they added.
Various debates and discussions in the House can also be translated without consuming much time with AI intervention, the officials further said.
The MLAs would also be able to monitor the real-time progress of the govt schemes through AI intervention.
Sources said the Vidhan Sabha in future would have an AI assistance unit, with responsibility to provide technical support to MLAs as and when required. The AI usage training will also be imparted to Vidhan Sabha secretariat staff from time to time to make them familiar with its usage.

ChatGPT chats were showing up on Google, but OpenAI says its all good now
ChatGPT users may have unintentionally shared their private conversations with millions of others, as Google and other search engines were recently found indexing chats that were shared with others. From understanding astrophysics to asking for advice to improve mental health, conversations with ChatGPT were showing up on Google if you added the term 'site: to your search query. While most of these conversations were uninteresting and simple, some of them were very personal. For example, several chats which discussed issues like mental health, sex life, career advice, addiction, physical abuse and other serious topics could be brought up with a simple Google search. While ChatGPT does not make conversations public by default, chats that were shared using the 'Share' button in the app and website were indexed by search engines like Google. For those unaware, ChatGPT's share feature creates a link, which you can send to others over WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook so they can view your conversation with the AI chatbot. The feature also allows people who have the link to continue the conversation with ChatGPT if they want to. One thing to note is that even if you delete the link, it might still be visible on cached pages. First discovered by Fast Company, the publication says that around 4,500 conversations were visible on Google site search, but most of them did not contain personally identifiable information. However, if someone included a name or phrase in a chat, it may show up in search results. The publication goes on to say that the number of leaked chats is probably much higher than the stated figure, as Google may not index all conversations. In a statement to PCMag, a Google spokesperson said that OpenAI is responsible for making these chats visible to search engines. We just removed a feature from @ChatGPTapp that allowed users to make their conversations discoverable by search engines, such as Google. This was a short-lived experiment to help people discover useful conversations. This feature required users to opt-in, first by picking a chat… — DANΞ (@cryps1s) July 31, 2025 In a post on X, an OpenAI employee said that they have now removed the feature that allowed users to make their conversations discoverable by search engines. He went on to say that this 'was a short-lived experiment' and that it 'introduced too many opportunities for folks to accidentally share things they didn't intend to.' OpenAI's Shared Links FAQ states that ChatGPT chats are not made public unless you tick the 'Make this chat discoverable' option when using the AI chatbot's built-in share feature. As it turns out, many ChatGPT users may have accidentally ticked this box, thinking it necessary to do so if they want their conversation to be visible to others. In case you are wondering, these shared links can be deleted at any time. To do so, head over to ChatGPT settings and, under the 'Data controls' section, click the 'Manage' button that appears to the right of the 'Shared links' option. Here, you will see how many chats you have shared publicly and the option to delete these links. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had also said that since there is currently no legal or policy framework for AI, users should not expect any legal confidentiality for their conversations with ChatGPT. This means that none of your chats are actually private and OpenAI might be forced to share your conversation with the AI chatbot in court if asked to do so.

Microsoft researchers name 40 white-collar jobs AI is most likely to steal: Is yours on the list?
Since the mass adoption of generative in late 2022, there has been a growing fear among the masses that the new technology will lead to large scale layoffs and even changing of work as we know it. More recently, business leaders have openly started proclaiming that AI will lead to job lossess even if they don't know which jobs will be lost exactly. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy for instance publicly stated that artificial intelligence will lead to reduction in the company's workforce in the coming years owing to efficiency gains. Meanwhile, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently stated, 'Everybody's jobs will be affected. Some jobs will be lost. Many jobs will be created and what I hope is that the productivity gains that we see in all the industries will lift society,' A new Microsoft study, however, gives us an insight into exactly which jobs are at the most risk due to artificial intelligence. The researchers analyzed 200,000 conversations between Microsoft's Copilot AI and users in order to find out the most common activities that people use AI to perform. It found that knowledge workers like Historians, Writers and Authors, CNC Tool Programmers, Brokerage Clerks, Political Scientists, Reporters and Journalists are at most risk of being threatened by AI. Moreover, the researchers point out that having a college degree may not help protect these jobs from being eliminated. 'In terms of education requirements, we find higher AI applicability for occupations requiring a Bachelor's degree than occupations with lower requirements' the researchers state.

Think before you ask: Why ChatGPT legal queries can be used against you as court evidence
ChatGPT may be quick and convenient, but using it for legal questions could backfire in serious ways. Many users aren't aware that anything they type into the chatbot, even deleted messages, can be retained and used as evidence in legal proceedings. Unlike lawyers, AI tools are not bound by confidentiality or ethical obligations. This means that sharing sensitive legal concerns with a chatbot doesn't just offer unreliable advice; it may also create a discoverable digital trail. Before you confide in AI, it is important to understand the risks and why human legal counsel is still essential. Your ChatGPT conversations are not legally confidential In a recent appearance on the This Past Weekend podcast hosted by comedian Theo Von, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman made a candid admission: conversations with ChatGPT are not protected under any kind of legal privilege. "Right now, if you talk to a therapist or a lawyer or a doctor, there's legal privilege for it," Altman explained. "There's doctor-patient confidentiality, there's legal confidentiality. And we haven't figured that out yet for when you talk to ChatGPT. " This means if you type out a sensitive legal scenario, say, describing an incident that might amount to a crime or seeking strategic legal advice, that chat can potentially be disclosed in court. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo According to Altman, OpenAI could be legally compelled to hand over your conversations, even if they've been deleted. The consequences of this are serious. Legal experts like Jessee Bundy from Creative Counsel have warned users not to mistake AI for actual legal representation. "If you're pasting in contracts, asking legal questions, or asking [the chatbot] for strategy, you're not getting legal advice," Jessee E. Bundy posted on X (formerly Twitter). "You're generating discoverable evidence. No attorney-client privilege. No confidentiality. No ethical duty. No one to protect you." She added that ChatGPT may feel private and helpful, but unlike a licensed attorney, it has no legal obligation to act in your best interest, and it can't be held accountable for any incorrect advice it generates. AI-Generated legal advice isn't actually legal advice When Malte Landwehr, CEO of an AI company, suggested that ChatGPT could still provide useful legal input even if it's not confidential, Bundy strongly pushed back. 'ChatGPT can't give you legal advice,' she replied. 'Legal advice comes from a licensed professional who understands your specific facts, goals, risks, and jurisdiction. And is accountable for it. ChatGPT is a language model. It generates words that sound right based on patterns, but it doesn't know your situation, and it's not responsible if it's wrong.' Calling it 'legal Mad Libs,' Bundy stressed that relying on ChatGPT for legal issues is both risky and potentially self-incriminating. Deleted chats with AI aren't safe from legal scrutiny User conversations with AI chatbots, including those that have been deleted, may still be stored and subject to disclosure in legal proceedings. As highlighted by ongoing litigation, some companies are required to retain chat records, which could be subpoenaed in court. This includes potentially sensitive or personal exchanges. At present, there is no legal obligation for AI platforms to treat user chats as confidential in the same way communications with a lawyer or therapist are protected. Until laws are updated to account for AI interactions, users should be aware that anything typed into a chatbot could, in some cases, be used as evidence. Why it's best to speak with a human lawyer instead of ChatGPT For legal concerns, whether it's about a contract, criminal matter, or a rights dispute, it's essential to consult a licensed professional. Unlike AI, lawyers are bound by strict confidentiality, legal privilege, and ethical duties. AI-generated responses may feel private and helpful, but they are not protected, verified, or accountable. While it may be tempting to turn to AI for convenience, doing so for legal issues could expose you to unnecessary risk. As artificial intelligence becomes more common in everyday use, it's important to recognise its limitations, especially in areas involving legal or personal stakes. Conversations with AI are not protected under legal privilege, and in the eyes of the law, they can be accessed like any other form of communication. Until privacy and legal frameworks are in place for AI, it's safest to avoid using chatbots for legal questions. For advice you can trust and that will remain confidential, always consult a qualified legal professional.
