Abstract: 

Generative AI systems like ChatGPT are all the hype and are indeed very useful in enhancing workforce productivity. Reuters reports that the popular chatbot reached 100 million users in January, just two months after its launch. The app had 13 million daily unique visitors in January, making it the fastest-growing consumer app in history. ChatGPT uses Large Language Models and produces excellent content in the forms of conversational answers to the questions users may ask of it. However, there are ample security weaknesses which are being overlooked that can be catastrophic if not addressed. In this talk, I will demonstrate the security weaknesses and risks that users and businesses face and what can be done to address them. Making this technology safer to use will really empower the businesses in new and innovative ways.
