Pretty much this.

OpenAI poisoned the well badly with their "we train off your chats" nonsense.

If you are using any API service, or any enterprise ChatGPT plan, your tokens are not being logged and recycled into new training data.

As for why trust them? Like the parent said: EULAs. Large companies trust EULAs and terms of service for every single SAAS product they use, and they use tons and tons of them.

OpenAI in a clumsy attempt to create a regulatory moat by doing sketchy shit and waving wild "AI will kill us all" nonsense has created a situation where the usefullness of these transforming generative solutions are automatically rejected by many.



The enterprise plan and I believe the API too are more expensive
