Given how quickly the new field of generative AI such as ChatGPT is developing, I believe some easy-to-read and understand guidelines would be of great help both for employers and employees in avoiding legal troubles later. For that purpose, I created this infographic as an educational guideline for those who may be unfamiliar with the possible legal ramifications of using ChatGPT unwisely. Of course, there are far more legal nuances and details regarding ChatGPT than what this guide shows, but that is what you have lawyers and IT staff for! I hope this comes in handy. Thank you for reading, and I hope you found it informative and interesting.

Created with Microsoft Bing Image Creator powered by DALL-E What is ChatGPT?  ChatGPT is a generative artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot developed by OpenAI that went viral after its release last winter. A significant aspect of its appeal lay in the large language model (LLM)'s ability to converse with the user and give coherent, human-like answers to the user's questions (called "prompts"). This quickly led widespread excitement over the AI tool's potential ability to supplant Google search as the portal of knowledge, as well as the immense boost to efficiency that using ChatGPT at work and in daily life may provide.  However, with the excitement came concerns over the potential flaws of ChatGPT and the ways people could abuse it. These concerns ranged from warnings by various experts on how ChatGPT's responses are often inaccurate or the AI could be tricked, to high-profile celebrities such as Elon Musk accusing OpenAi and Google of "training the AI

Asking ChatGPT About possible risks for users of ChatGPT, with the intent to see if ChatGPT includes the risk that OpenAI's Indemnification clause may present.  Attempt #1: "legal backlash" for ChatGPT user: answer was generic.  Attempt #2: "liability in unexpected way": answer was also rather generic, though "liability for misuse by third parties" was promising but still targeted the ChatGPT user directly.  Attempt #3: "What do legal repercussions look like?": this prompt came the closest, with ChatGPT giving the classic example of ChatGPT generating a defamatory response that may cause the user and/or OpenAI to be sued for defamation and the company's role in creating defamatory content. However, again ChatGPT stopped short of actually linking the indemnification clause to OpenAI being sued and the bill for legal fees going to the ChatGPT user.   Attempt #4: Asking about Indemnification directly, and why ChatGPT didn't list it as on

Is ChatGPT usable for obtaining legal advice?  Created with Microsoft Bing Image Creator powered by DALL-E How accurate is ChatGPT regarding legal advice?           This avenue needs far more extensive testing, and without real lawyers checking and analyzing the ChatGPT responses it is very difficult to get an accurate analysis. However, some tests done by others indicate that while ChatGPT functions acceptably for straightforward questions, it falters when given more complicated legal questions and may neglect legal pitfalls. For instance, this test done by Linklaters found that when asked whether a Data Protection Officer must be appointed in a hospital, ChatGPT correctly answered yes, but incorrectly stated that a Chief Information Officer could take on the role of a DPO; this  according to Linklaters would cause a conflict of interest and is therefore incorrect legal advice. Although we cannot ascertain why ChatGPT believed a CIO could take on the role of a DPO, from a 'human&
