- OpenAI and Handshake AI are asking contractors to upload real work from past and current jobs for training data.
- The strategy aims to generate high-quality data to automate white-collar tasks using AI models.
- Contractors are instructed to provide actual files (e.g., Word, PDF, Excel) but must remove proprietary or personal data first.
- OpenAI suggests using a ChatGPT 'Superstar Scrubbing' tool to clean sensitive information.
- An intellectual property lawyer warns this approach carries legal risks due to reliance on contractors' discretion.
