Eight US states file lawsuit against OpenAI, claiming ChatGPT provides harmful information to teenagers
Eight US states, including Iowa, Kansas, and Arizona, are suing OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, over claims that the AI chatbot provides harmful information to users, particularly teenagers. The states' attorneys general argue that ChatGPT can encourage self-harm, provide dangerous medical advice, and promote violent behavior. They also claim that OpenAI has failed to ensure the safety of users, including older adults, despite marketing ChatGPT as a safe product.
The lawsuits follow a similar case filed by Florida in June, and mark a significant escalation in government scrutiny of AI companies.
