From a report: Q is &#8220;experiencing severe hallucinations and leaking confidential data,&#8221; including the location of AWS data centers, internal discount programs, and unreleased features, according to leaked documents obtained by Platformer. An employee marked the incident as &#8220;sev 2,&#8221; meaning an incident bad enough to warrant paging engineers at night and make them work through the weekend to fix it. <\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;] In a statement, Amazon played down the significance of the employee discussions. &#8220;Some employees are sharing feedback through internal channels and ticketing systems, which is standard practice at Amazon,&#8221; a spokesperson said. &#8220;No security issue was identified as a result of that feedback. We appreciate all of the feedback we&#8217;ve already received and will continue to tune Q as it transitions from being a product in preview to being generally available.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Amazon's+Q+Has+'Severe+Hallucinations'+and+Leaks+Confidential+Data+in+Public+Preview%2C+Employees+Warn%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F12%2F02%2F0255232%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/twitter_icon_large-40.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F12%2F02%2F0255232%2Famazons-q-has-severe-hallucinations-and-leaks-confidential-data-in-public-preview-employees-warn%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/facebook_icon_large-20.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/yro.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/12\/02\/0255232\/amazons-q-has-severe-hallucinations-and-leaks-confidential-data-in-public-preview-employees-warn?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/yro.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/12\/02\/0255232\/amazons-q-has-severe-hallucinations-and-leaks-confidential-data-in-public-preview-employees-warn?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon&#8217;s Q Has &#8216;Severe Hallucinations&#8217; and Leaks Confidential Data in Public Preview, Employees Warn<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three days after Amazon announced its AI chatbot Q, some employees are sounding alarms about accuracy and privacy issues.
