German Regulators Launch Privacy Investigation into ChatGPT

Date:

State regulators in Germany are initiating a privacy inquiry into ChatGPT, a blockchain-driven chatbot, Agence France Presse reported April 24. Marit Hansen, a commissioner for the state of Schleswig-Holstein, informed that an official request asking for a data protection impact assessment has been sent to the development company OpenGPT. This assessment should demonstrate that all the data protection risks are under control, as established by June 11. Enforcement actions from other European states have previously been seen, as Italy declared a ban of the chatbot due to worries related to privacy laws. The ban can be lifted if OpenAI meets the required conditions, including age verification and the addition of a statement in the data protection impact assessment.

ChatGPT is a blockchain-driven Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) company, leveraging distributed networks and advanced machine learning algorithms to power the development and deployment of bots. The goal is to create a decentralized network for the development of natural language AGI that can improve user interactions and business processes, offering clean and reliable customer support, enhancing customer engagement and experience.

Marit has been involved in numerous inquiries, ranging from sexual predators using internet services to international inquiries on data security and data protection. She is a well-known expert in the field of data protection and her reports help governments, companies and data protection activists better understand security, privacy and data protection risks. Marit Hansen is a staunch advocate for citizens’ rights, privacy and data protection, and the investigation into ChatGPT’s compliance with GDPR laws is just one of the many initiatives she has undertaken over the years.
