It surely can't hurt, if it's to sanity check your highly paid advisors...

Except those prompts are retained by OpenAI, and you don't know who's got access to that. They've had chats leak before.

If that's your problem with this story then you're just saying they should run a local instance of chatgpt on their own local computers

I mean, I don't really love that he uses AI to begin with, but getting an opinion on top of what you get from your advisors that you hired could be good in theory. Except that most AIs are programmed to be equally sycophantic and they're just plain wrong most of the time.

To me the most irresponsible part is sending your thoughts as the leader of a country straight to a US run company, you just know those prompts are being digested by the NSA directly, and possibly other intelligence agencies.
