Italy became the first western nation to impose a temporary embargo on the well-liked artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, ChatGPT, on Friday due to worries over data protection.
The US company OpenAI, which develops ChatGPT, was criticised by the nation’s Data Protection Authority for having no legal justification for “the mass gathering and storage of personal data for the aim of ‘training’ the algorithms underlying the operation of the platform.”
When ChatGPT was introduced last year, it created a sensation around the world because to its capacity to produce essays, songs, examinations, and even news pieces from brief suggestions.
But, detractors have long complained that it was unclear from where ChatGPT and its rivals obtained their data or how they handled it.
