In Turkey, especially with the implementation of the Personal Data Protection Law numbered 6698 (“LPPD” and/or “Law”) and the related legislation, the issues regarding the processing and protection of personal data have been adopted by almost every segment of the society both by institutions and individually, and especially the issues of “personal data” and “personal data privacy” have raised awareness and gained importance.
In today’s age, advances in the field of natural language processing (NLP), which have been adopted at the same pace and created awareness, have increased the popularity of artificial intelligence models such as ChatGPT and led to various application areas. Especially with the advances made in natural language processing, language-based artificial intelligence models such as ChatGPT stand out with their ability to interact with humans in a natural way. With the combination of this popularity and technological opportunities, there is no doubt that artificial intelligence applications will continue to develop rapidly.
However, with the use of such artificial intelligence applications, important and highly sensitive issues such as privacy and security of personal data also come to the fore. In this article, the evaluation of ChatGPT and similar artificial intelligence applications in terms of the protection of personal data and the points to be considered in the use of these technologies will be discussed.
