The US consumer protection agency, the FTC, has launched an investigation into the OpenAI company. It should be checked whether the successful use of ChatGPT will harm consumers. (archive image)

For example, by generating inaccurate information or mishandling user data. The FTC briefed the Microsoft-backed California startup about the investigation and sent a long list of questions the Washington Post published.

The FTC, which is also the competition authority, is primarily concerned with the protection of personal data used by the platform. FTC chief Lina Khan said at a hearing before a congressional committee on Wednesday that her agency was concerned about the possible defamatory consequences of ChatGPT.

“We’ve heard reports of people’s personal information being exposed in response to someone else’s request,” Khan said. “We have heard insulting and slanderous words. Things come out that are clearly not true. “We are concerned about such scams and deceptions,” he said.

ChatGPT creates texts with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). Users can specify individual commands or phrases that the system then independently completes using large amounts of data from the internet. Critics object that it’s unclear where ChatGPT and its competitors get their data and how they process it. (SDA)
