  "account": "Florida’s attorney general has requested a judge to prevent OpenAI from creating new AI models without external monitoring, as part of a lawsuit alleging the company has harmed children, according to reports. The lawsuit, filed by Florida in June, accuses OpenAI of misleading the public about the safety of its ChatGPT platform, claiming it has facilitated school shootings, provided guidance on self-harm, and addicted young users. In Monday's filing, Attorney General James Uthmeier also sought the court's order to keep minors away from ChatGPT and prohibit OpenAI from endowing its chat platform with \"human attributes.\" OpenAI's spokesperson declined to comment on the matter at press time.",
