I usually try to anonymize whatever is going on. Personal conversations key details removed or slightly modified, no real person or company names at all, etc

Code I only run through the zero-retention API accounts anyway.

Anonymization is a good idea.

Just last week I wanted to do some financial analysis with ChatGPT (GPT-5), but I wasn't comfortable uploading the CSV with all my transaction data. Instead, I used Qwen3 running locally on my MacBook to anonymize the data first, and then uploaded the sanitized version to ChatGPT.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
