OpenAI deletes the option to publish conversations to search engines because it 'introduced too many opportunities for folks to accidentally share things they didn't intend to,' it says.

OpenAI is ending the option to have Google and other search engines index user chats with ChatGPT and make the content of those chats discoverable on searches.

Following a Fast Company report that found sensitive conversations appearing in search results, OpenAI removed a controversial sharing option and began working to de-index exposed content.
