OpenAI reports PRC-linked influence operations using ChatGPT to target U.S. AI debates and policy

Our mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.

We advance this mission by deploying our innovations to build democratic AI: AI shaped by democratic principles, governed by common-sense rules and designed to help people solve hard problems while protecting them from real harm.

That mission also requires identifying and disrupting attempts by authoritarian regimes and their proxies to use AI systems to coerce critics, surveil communities or covertly interfere in democratic societies.

In this report, we describe two clusters of ChatGPT accounts likely originating from PRC-linked influence operations.
