last tuesday OpenAI It was forced to conduct an emergency offline maintenance on ChatGPT because someone found a loophole in its system that may cause the content of the title in the user’s conversation record to be restored by others. According to screenshots that users posted to Reddit, their ChatGPT sidebars show title-only chats from other users. To investigate the matter, OpenAI took ChatGPT offline for nearly ten hours. It turned out that there was a more dangerous security risk in the system. This bug, which restores the conversation title to someone else’s interface, may also potentially leak the personal data of 1.2% of ChatGPT Plus paid users.

“In the hours before ChatGPT went offline on Monday, some users may have seen another active user’s first name, last name, email address, payment address, last four digits of credit card, and credit card expiration date,” OpenAI said in an announcement. wrote, “The complete credit card number has not been leaked at any time, and the relevant loopholes have been patched.” According to them, basically only during the time period from 1 am to 10 am Pacific time on March 20 , the limited information of some users will be seen by others in the form of email or wrong display on the ChatGPT account page. There may also be a few cases before March 20, but the official has not received any relevant reports so far.

To prevent similar problems from happening in the future, OpenAI has committed to taking additional measures such as adding redundant checks. They have also contacted potentially affected users to alert them to the situation.

New Delhi: The government has raised the daily wage rates under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) by up to 10.4% for FY24 from a year before.

The increase assumes significance, as the MGNREGS rates serve as the benchmark for rural wages and influence the rise in industrial wages as well. The hikes are linked to the changes in the Consumer Price Index (Agriculture Labour), which captures the inflationary pressure in rural areas.

In absolute terms, the daily wages have been raised in the ₹7-26 range, according to a notification by the rural development ministry. The revised wages for different states and Union territories range from ₹221 per day (Chhattisgarh/Madhya Pradesh) to ₹357 (Haryana) for FY24.

Highest Hike for Rajasthan
Rajasthan saw the highest increase (10.4%) in the wage rate for FY24 and Goa the lowest hike (2.2%).

The states and Union territories where the wage rate hike for FY24 remains below 5% are Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Goa, Karnataka, Manipur, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.

The MGNREGS guarantees 100 days of employment in every fiscal year to adult members of any rural household who are willing to do unskilled manual work for public purposes.

According to the government’s revised estimate, spending on the MGNREGS is expected to rise to Rs 89,400 crore this fiscal year from the budgeted Rs 73,000 crore. The government has budgeted Rs 60,000 crore for FY24, but finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman has indicated that more funds would be allocated for the scheme if required.
