OpenAI’s alleged failure to protect children is also a significant concern for the regulator. Although the company states that ChatGPT is meant for people over the age of 13, officials claim that there are no age checks to prevent children from seeing “absolutely unsuitable” answers.
The Privacy Guarantor is giving OpenAI 20 days to address these issues. Failure to comply could result in a fine of up to €20 million (about $21.8 million US) or a maximum four percent of its annual worldwide turnover.
