Amid growing popularity of ChatGPT, Microsoft-owned OpenAI, the developer of the AI chatbot, is now offering people up to USD 20,000 to security researchers to help the company distinguish between good-faith hacking and malicious attacks, as it suffered a security breach last month. 

OpenAI has launched a bug bounty programme for ChatGPT and other products, saying the initial priority rating for most findings will use the 'Bugcrowd Vulnerability Rating Taxonomy'.
