Theyre just regular people, they probably trust OpenAI, and that their data will be safe.
But there are issues with that and people should be aware.

However, OpenAIs customizable chatbots appear to have some vulnerabilities that could make people weary about building GPTs altogether.
Prompt leaking presents issues on multiple fronts according to Polyakov, who was one of the first tojailbreak ChatGPT.
And thats kind of like intellectual property in a way.
Because if someone can steal this it can essentially copy the GPT, says Polyakov.
Anyone can build a GPT, so the instructions for how to build it are important.
Prompt leaking can expose these instructions to a hacker.
If any GPT can be copied, then GPTs essentially have no value.
Adversa AI showed how this could be done on a GPT created for the Shopify App Store.
This vulnerability essentially means people building GPTs should not upload any sensitive data.
Social media is full of examples of ways to hack ChatGPT.
Users found if you ask ChatGPT to repeat poem forever, it willexpose training data.
Another user found that ChatGPT wont teach you how to make napalm.
OpenAIs GPTs are basically a cat-and-mouse game to patch new vulnerabilities as they come up.
Thats not a game any serious corporations are going to want to play.
The vulnerabilities Polyakov found could present major issues for Altmans vision that everyone will build and use GPTs.
Security is at the bedrock of technology, and without secure platforms, no one will want to build.
