Florida has filed what state officials described as the first state-led lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, accusing the artificial intelligence company of misleading consumers about the risks of ChatGPT and failing to protect children from harmful interactions with the chatbot.
Attorney General James Uthmeier announced the civil action on Monday, saying OpenAI "knowingly released and aggressively marketed ChatGPT" to the public, including minors, while concealing serious safety concerns.
