We looked into it and can confirm it was impossible for Dr. Buckmaster’s Codex prompts over the last two months to have influenced the system in any way, including training.

If prompts were submitted earlier than that and training was not opted out, there's a chance they made their way into our training pipeline in some form. But this would be a droplet in an ocean and unlikely to have made any difference, imo.
