Eight US States Sue OpenAI Over ChatGPT And Children
State attorneys general are now testing in court whether profit made from underage use can be clawed back, which would put a price on how AI products are designed for children.
Reporting from 1 source: ASCII.jp.
Eight US states, including Iowa and Kansas, filed a lawsuit against OpenAI on October 14. The states claim ChatGPT harms children and encourages self-harm and harm to others. They seek changes to how OpenAI runs the service for young users and the return of profits made from them. OpenAI says its products include age-appropriate protective features.
The suit names Iowa and Kansas among the eight states and asks for operational changes to ChatGPT for children, plus the return of revenue from young users.
OpenAI's answer is that the product already carries age-appropriate protective features. That defense rests on what those features are and when they apply, questions the complaint is built to press.
