Florida attorney general launches investigation into OpenAI and ChatGPT
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has launched an investigation into OpenAI and its chatbot ChatGPT, citing concerns that the company's data could fall into the hands of America's enemies.
The probe also references a mass shooter's use of ChatGPT, according to reports. The investigation represents the latest regulatory scrutiny facing the artificial intelligence company as governments worldwide grapple with AI safety and data security concerns.
OpenAI has faced increasing oversight from state and federal authorities regarding its data practices and the potential misuse of its AI systems. The Florida investigation adds to a growing list of regulatory challenges for the San Francisco-based company.
The attorney general's office has not disclosed specific demands or the scope of the investigation. OpenAI did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the probe.
