Private Conversations with Anthropic’s Claude AI found in Google Search

An unknown number of private chats, including conversations, vibe-coded applications, and private documents, created with Anthropic’s Claude AI have found to be searchable and discoverable in Google Search. This occurred when users wish to share chats with the “Create a public link” feature. Though the “feature” has now been fixed, some startling information was leaked:

Such documents, which were reviewed by Futurism by way of Google Search, included what appeared to be a detailed medical report of a real patient, clinical trial results that included patient names, documents sharing the names and phone numbers of primary school-aged children, company documents marked for internal use only, and employee reviews that included personal information about workers.
