OpenAI to train on Daybreak Blue security-research sessions from Nov 29, with no opt-out

ccerrato147 · x · 2026-10-31

Security researchers shared an official OpenAI email: starting November 29, content from Daybreak Blue sessions on personal accounts may be used to improve OpenAI's models — even when the "improve the model for everyone" setting is off, with no opt-out. Business/enterprise customers and PSP/ZDR handling are unaffected.

@moyix confirmed it and called it "a horrible idea"; @seanhn argues it effectively steals security researchers' private work — something OpenAI promised not to do to math researchers — and will likely kill Daybreak usage by security researchers, underscoring the importance of open models.
