ChatGPT account login credentials of users were compromisedl, OpenAI confirms OpenAI has officially acknowledged that the login credentials of ChatGPT users were compromised, leading to unauthorized access and misuse of accounts. This confirmation comes in response to recent claims made by ArsTechnica, where screenshots sent in by a reader indicated that ChatGPT was leaking private conversations, including sensitive details such as usernames and passwords, something that the company completely denied. OpenAI clarified that their fraud and security teams were actively investigating the matter and refuted the initial ArsTechnica report as inaccurate. According to OpenAI, the compromised account login credentials allowed a malicious actor to gain access and misuse the affected accounts. The leaked chat history and files were a result of this unauthorized access, and it was not a case of ChatGPT displaying another user's history.

Because this is an election year, this budget’s announcements will not be binding for the fiscal year 2024-25 and the final budget will be presented in July by the new government elected in the 2024 general elections. To be sure, the interim budget is likely to make announcements with the elections in mind and one will have to see how they affect the budgetary math. Having said this, the run-up to the 2024-25 interim budget is a good opportunity to evaluate the economic performance of the Narendra Modi government which has been in office for 10 years. This two-part data journalism series will seek to do exactly that. The first part will look at this government’s performance on the crucial fronts of growth, employment and inflation and the second part will look at the questions of taxes and subsidies, health of the financial sector and confidence levels i

Difference between balance of trade and current account

The balance of trade (BOT) and the current account are two components of the balance of payments (BOP) . The BOT is the difference between the value of a country’s exports and the value of its imports for a given period. It is calculated as the total value of exports minus the total value of imports. A country that imports more goods and services than it exports in terms of value has a trade deficit . Conversely, a country that exports more goods and services than it imports has a trade surplus . The current account records the inflow and outflow of goods and services into a country, earnings on investments, both public and private, and credits and debits on the trade of merchandise, which includes goods such as raw materials and manufactured goods that are bought, sold, or given away (possibly in the form of aid). Services refer to receipts from tourism, transportation, engineering, business service fees (from lawyers or management consulting, for example), and royalties from patent

Change in foreign exchange reserve.

The foreign exchange reserves of a country refer to the amount of foreign currency held by the central bank of that country.

Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language known for its simplicity, readability, and versatility. It was created by Guido van Rossum and was first released in 1991. Python has since become one of the most popular programming languages, widely used in various domains, including web development, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, automation, and more. ### Key Features of Python: 1. **Easy to Read and Write:**    - Python emphasizes code readability and a clean syntax, making it easy for programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than languages like C++ or Java. 2. **Interpreted Language:**    - Python is an interpreted language, meaning that code is executed line by line, making it easier to test and debug. The interpreter allows for interactive programming and prototyping. 3. **High-Level Language:**    - Python is a high-level language, abstracting away low-level details such as memory management. This allows developers to focus on p

How many times we are breathe in a day?

Image
On average, a person takes about 12 to 20 breaths per minute. This can vary based on factors such as age, fitness level, and health status. If we use an average breathing rate of 15 breaths per minute, you would breathe approximately 21,600 times in a 24-hour day (15 breaths/minute * 60 minutes/hour * 24 hours/day). Keep in mind that this is a rough estimate, and individual variations may occur.

What is AI?

AI, or Artificial Intelligence, refers to the development of computer systems that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. These tasks include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, understanding natural language, speech recognition, and visual perception. The goal of AI is to create systems that can mimic or simulate human intelligence and behavior. There are two main types of AI: 1. **Narrow AI (Weak AI):**    - Narrow AI is designed to perform a specific task or a narrow set of tasks. It excels at the particular application it is built for but lacks the general cognitive abilities of humans. Examples include virtual personal assistants like Siri or Alexa, image recognition software, and recommendation systems. 2. **General AI (Strong AI):**    - General AI refers to a system with the ability to understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a wide range of tasks—similar to human intelligence. Achieving true general AI is a complex and theoretical goal that remains

What is Coding?

Coding is the process of translating human-readable instructions into a language that a computer can understand and execute. It involves writing code, which is a set of specific instructions or commands, using a programming language. The goal of coding is to create a computer program that performs a desired task or solves a particular problem. Here are some key points about coding: 1. **Programming Languages:**    - Coding is done using programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, Ruby, and many others. Each programming language has its syntax and rules for writing code. 2. **Instructions for Computers:**    - Code consists of a series of commands that instruct the computer on what operations to perform. These commands can range from simple arithmetic calculations to complex logical operations. 3. **Human-Readable and Machine-Executable:**    - Code is written in a way that is understandable to humans, allowing programmers to express their ideas and logic. However, it n

What is Programming?

Programming, also known as coding or software development, is the process of designing and building executable computer programs to accomplish a specific task. It involves writing a set of instructions that a computer can interpret and execute to perform a particular operation or solve a particular problem. Here are some key aspects of programming: 1. **Algorithm Design:**    - Programmers create algorithms, which are step-by-step procedures or formulas for solving problems. These algorithms serve as the foundation for writing code. 2. **Programming Languages:**    - Programming is done using languages such as Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, Ruby, and many others. Each programming language has its syntax and semantics. 3. **Syntax and Semantics:**    - Syntax refers to the set of rules that dictate how programs written in a particular language must be structured. Semantics, on the other hand, defines the meaning behind those structures. 4. **Writing Code:**    - Programmers write code u
