Asked By CuriousCoder42 On

I shared some code with ChatGPT that included secret keys and passwords. I'm wondering if I should consider those keys compromised or if it's alright to keep using them. I've already accepted that I might catch some flak for asking this, so feel free to be honest. By the way, I've already decided to rotate them.

Definitely treat those keys as compromised! Once you share them in your code, there's no guarantee they won't be accessible to others. It's best to rotate them for your security.

Exactly! Rotating might feel inconvenient, but it's worth avoiding potential security threats.

In doubt? Always change them. It’s a simple task that can prevent major headaches down the line. Besides, treating your secrets like potential risks is a smart mindset!

Right? It’s like having a backup plan – just in case.

You should definitely swap them out. Even if it seems unlikely that anything would happen, it's just not worth the risk. Change them, just in case.

Yes, it's a good idea to change them. Even if the model itself doesn't remember the keys, someone else could potentially see them in future context. Nice move on deciding to rotate them, it’s a smart choice!

For sure! It may take just a few minutes to change them but can save you a ton of hassle.

Yeah, always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to credentials.
