The European Union is taking action to ensure citizens' privacy as AI technology grows. Last month, Italy prohibited the use of ChatGPT chatbot, citing failure to comply with GDPR rules. France and Spain also initiated investigation into OpenAI, the American firm behind the chatbot. ChatGPT has capabilities to write conversations and has caused concerns over misuse and data privacy. The EU is forming a taskforce to help countries grapple with the chatbot.
. The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) has created a task force to help countries use OpenAI's AI chatbot ChatGPT while abiding by data privacy laws. OpenAI's mission is to make AI accessible by developing natural language processing models. Across different industries, ChatGPT is a powerful tool to answer questions posed in different parameters. The task force will ensure ChatGPT meets the legal requirements of its users while still being used successfully. The EDPB will oversee OpenAI's GDPR compliance. This task force serves as an example for countries to understand and protect user data responsibly.
The EU's data protection agency, EPDB, has formed a task force to address global use of AI chatbot ChatGPT as legal enquiries into it are being opened in multiple countries. OpenAI Technologies, the US-based company providing ChatGPT, is committed to protecting people's privacy and its tools follow the law. Expect EPDB’s task force to foster cooperation and potentially enforce measures to guarantee data protection standards are kept.
OpenAI has responded to an Italian suspension order by blocking access to their chatbot ChatGPT and making a commitment to comply with all GDPR requirements. Aiming to further protect users' rights, they will implement changes and maintain their high privacy and security standards before the stipulated deadline. Keep your data secure and your online experience more enjoyable with OpenAI.
