Hundreds of conversations users had with Anthropic's Claude AI chatbot, containing both personal and professional data, were accessible to the public online. Links to these chats appeared in search engines like Google if specific terms were used. The search function was taken offline across the weekend, but many conversations were preserved and circulated extensively.
