OpenAI sued for using 'stolen' data, violating your privacy with ChatGPT2023-06-29 17:30 by DanielaTags: OpenAI, ChatGPT
The generative artificial intelligence company OpenAI LP was hit with a wide-ranging consumer class action lawsuit alleging that company's use of web scraping to train its artificial intelligence models misappropriates personal data on "an unprecedented scale." The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California by Clarkson Law Firm on June 28. The suit alleges that OpenAI trained ChatGPT using data collected from millions of social media comments, blog posts, Wikipedia articles and family recipes without the consent of the respective users. Thus, OpenAI violated the copyrights and privacy of millions of internet users. The data that the lawsuit alleges was stolen by OpenAI includes names, contact details, email addresses, payment information, social media information, chat log data, usage data, analytics, and cookies. The plaintiffs, represented by the Clarkson Law Firm, are asking the court to temporarily freeze commercial access to and development of the AI products until OpenAI completes certain tasks. Those include the establishment of an independent council that approves uses of the company's products before they're released for those purposes; the implementation of cybersecurity safeguards and accountability and transparency protocols; and the establishment of a fund to compensate class members for the alleged misconduct. The plaintiffs are also asking the court to require OpenAI to allow users of its products to opt out of data collection and to add safety measures "that will prevent the technology from surpassing human intelligence and harming others."
