Watch nextTheo Von. The section roughly twelve minutes in, where Altman admits there is no legal privilege for ChatGPT conversations and that OpenAI can be ordered to hand them over in a lawsuit, is the single most-quoted piece of footage on this topic — and worth hearing in his own voice rather than via a news clip.
