Users report OpenAI re-enabling model training on Codex chats; not confirmed by OpenAI

A Hacker News post titled "OpenAI seems to be silently re-enabling model training on Codex chats" says the setting that lets OpenAI use Codex conversations to train its models has turned itself back on for some accounts. The post links to no evidence.

In the thread, one commenter says their setting was re-enabled, and that their request history shows two earlier requests to disable training that had been granted. An earlier commenter said they had noticed it occasionally. By November 3 the thread had 361 points and 106 comments. OpenAI had not commented there, and the reports are individual accounts that no one has verified. Users who do not want their Codex chats used for training can check their data-sharing settings.
