A coalition of nonprofits filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, Anthropic, SpaceX's AI division, Meta Platforms, and Alphabet's Google on Thursday, aiming to halt the further development of their most advanced AI models, according to the legal filing. The plaintiffs, which include the Irreplaceable Education Fund, Public Citizen, and Heat Initiative, are based in San Francisco and argue that California's laws against unfair business practices provide the basis for a court order to prevent the companies from advancing products like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.
