🤖 ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Two class-action lawsuits have been filed against OpenAI, targeting its ChatGPT software and raising concerns about privacy rights, intellectual property violations, and potential harm to the public.
The first lawsuit, filed by Clarkson, accuses OpenAI of stealing private and personally identifying information from millions of internet users without their consent. It requests a temporary freeze on commercial access to OpenAI's products until safeguards are implemented.
The second lawsuit, filed by the Joseph Saveri Law Firm and attorney Matthew Butterick, focuses on copyright infringement claims by authors Paul Tremblay and Mona Awad. They allege that their books were used to train ChatGPT without permission.
Legal experts predict that these lawsuits could be the beginning of a wave of legal challenges against companies in the AI industry.
The lawsuits raise questions about the responsibility of AI companies, the potential misuse of personal data, and the need to establish legal precedents in this emerging area of law.
