This is probably correct but I'd prefer that family don't read the conversations I've had, as even if I'm not saying anything too private, it feels too intrusive (it'd be a bit like reading my inner thoughts).

It's interesting that you're so trusting of strangers knowing your inner thoughts (OpenAI) but not your family

How could I look my wife in the eye, or expect my kids to grow up happy, if they knew their dad doesn't know how to use a regex to detect emojis in a string?

I hope there is more going on behind those eyes than not being a regex expert

I don't want my family to know I spent 3 hours chatting about the Holy Roman Empire.

What would change if they knew?

Is that truly interesting? OP does not have to care about what AI think of him. OP does notnhave to care about accidentally offending or hurting AI either. Open does nor have to care about whether AI finds him silly or whatever.

Normal humans care about all of those with their families.

AI is a tool controlled by people. In this case, people who are not OP.

Fine then. You don't want to find out your family the love you have for Roman empire. But you are a programmer, yes? So make an app that's just a wrapper for ChatGPT API's you're paying for and distribute that to your family phones. They'll use your OpenAI API key and each will have their own little ChatGPT 4 to query to. Have fun.
