Florida Attorney General seeks emergency injunction to halt OpenAI development and restrict ChatGPT for minors
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has filed an emergency motion seeking a temporary injunction against OpenAI. The motion asks a court to halt the development of OpenAI's models, including ChatGPT, and to ban its use for minors in Florida. This legal action stems from an ongoing lawsuit related to a campus shooting, where the AG's office alleges that ChatGPT poses significant safety risks. Uthmeier's filing cites concerns about potential harm to minors and even the "survival of humankind" due to the unchecked development of artificial intelligence. The injunction specifically aims to prevent ChatGPT from "pretending to be human" and to compel age verification for all users. The Attorney General's office is pushing for these restrictions until a full trial can address the broader implications of OpenAI's technology.
