I say stuff like, “thank you, that worked” as a positive signal that the previous answer worked before asking another question to help advance the conversation and reinforce a right answer.
I say thank you and tell it that worked because if a human reviews the chat later, I assume this will help them train future models or at least show that it was useful
Is it still learning from ongoing conversations? I thought its grasp of context was purely limited to a single conversation, so if for instance you taught it something, it would never share that with me, or with you a few days later.
In this case, they used that phrase in continuing the conversation to reinforce the context and guide the bot's responses
My understand is the bot doesn't actively learn from conversations, or use information between conversations, though it all probably helps OpenAI when they retrain the model using the chats.
and i'm afraid that openai has all this data about me being mean to it, and in 5-20 years somehow that information will become public and used against me
