According to a newspaper report, the US antitrust authorities have initiated investigations into OpenAI because of a possible violation of consumer protection laws. According to the FTC, the Microsoft stake with its popular chatbot ChatGPT endangers personal data and the reputation of people, reported the Washington Post and the “Wall Street Journal” on Thursday.
Therefore, the authority requested information in a 20-page letter on how OpenAI deals with the risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI). Neither the FTC nor OpenAI could initially be reached for comment.
So-called generative AI is trained with vast amounts of data, which are often gathered on the Internet. This also includes personal entries on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. In addition, all inquiries and information provided by users flow into the database.
