In addition, Szpindor has developed a series of regulations on how to use the tool. Offices will only be able to use the tool for "research and evaluation" and experiment with how to improve their operations, but "have no authority to incorporate it into regular workflow." She added that the office should only enter "non-sensitive" data and instructed staff not to "paste any block of text into the chatbot that has not been made public". She directed the office to enable privacy settings, which are disabled by default, to "ensure that history is not preserved and interactions are not re-incorporated into large language models."
