The EU subjects ChatGPT, Reddit and Roblox to its strictest platform rules
This decision shows that the European Commission considers ChatGPT to be a search engine.
The European Commission has designated ChatGPT, Reddit, and Roblox as subject to its strictest online service regulations. This classification, under the Digital Services Act, brings them under direct Commission supervision and requires risk assessment and mitigation measures, particularly regarding minors, election integrity, and public safety.
Non-compliance can result in fines of up to 6% of global annual turnover. The new designations bring to 28 the number of platforms and search engines subject to the stricter regime, which applies to online services with over 45 million users in the EU.
