Attorneys general warn OpenAI ‘harm to children will not be tolerated’
California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings met with and sent an open letter to OpenAI to express their concerns over the safety of ChatGPT, particularly for children and teens.
“Since the issuance of that letter, we learned of the heartbreaking death by suicide of one young Californian after he had prolonged interactions with an OpenAI chatbot, as well as a similarly disturbing murder-suicide in Connecticut,” Bonta and Jennings write. The two state officials are currently investigating OpenAI’s proposed restructuring into a for-profit entity to ensure that the mission of the nonprofit remains intact. As we continue our dialogue related to OpenAI’s recapitalization plan, we must work to accelerate and amplify safety as a governing force in the future of this powerful technology.”
