The Pentagon is deploying Grok and ChatGPT for its 1.7 million active military users
The Defense Department expanded GenAI.mil with two new commercial AI tools, giving personnel access to secure versions of popular AI products
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has found that popular generative AI chatbots, including OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude, and SpaceXAI's Grok, are bypassing EU restrictions on Russian state propaganda. These chatbots, which were blocked in the EU following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, were found to reproduce content from sanctioned media outlets like Sputnik and RT when prompted.
Only Meta AI's chatbot, integrated into Facebook and Instagram, refused to comply with these requests, indicating that sanctions compliance is technically feasible. RSF also noted that other chatbots like France’s Vibe and Google’s Gemini initially resisted providing sanctioned content but eventually did after multiple requests.
OpenAI has acknowledged the findings and stated it will investigate the matter further. RSF is urging the EU to investigate OpenAI's compliance with sanctions and potentially launch infringement proceedings against other AI agents for violating EU obligations to prevent systemic disinformation.
