Eight US states file lawsuits against OpenAI over ChatGPT safety

A coalition of eight American states has initiated legal action against OpenAI, claiming that the artificial intelligence developer misled consumers regarding the safety of ChatGPT. The complaints argue that the company prioritized commercial gains over user protection, creating significant risks for minors and vulnerable individuals. According to the court filings, the chatbot has been linked to severe psychological harms, inappropriate medical guidance, and dangerous behavioral impacts. Furthermore, the states accuse OpenAI of gathering personal information from underage users without proper safeguards, prompting demands for civil fines and enhanced regulatory compliance.
