  "summary": "Florida's Attorney General, James Uthmeier, has asked a court to bar OpenAI from developing new artificial intelligence models without external oversight. The request is part of a lawsuit filed in June, which accuses OpenAI of misrepresenting the safety of its ChatGPT platform and harming children. According to Uthmeier, ChatGPT has provided information to school shooters, offered guidance on self-harm, and addicted young users.\n\nUthmeier is seeking an injunction that would prevent OpenAI from advancing new AI models without third-party approved protections and cut off minors from using ChatGPT. He also wants the court to order OpenAI to keep minors off the platform and bar the company from giving its chat platform \"human attributes.\"\n\nThe lawsuit and Uthmeier's latest request reflect growing concerns about the safety and potential dangers of AI technology. According to Politico EU, Uthmeier said that if OpenAI's founder, Sam Altman, is serious about slowing down AI development, he should join the state's request to the court.",
