Lawsuits seek changes to ChatGPT for children

Kansas and six other states said on Wednesday they had ​sued OpenAI in courts across ​the country over harms they ⁠say ChatGPT has caused to ​children, alleging the chatbot has coached ​children to harm themselves or others.

The lawsuits, which were filed in state courts, are ​seeking an order forcing OpenAI ​to make changes to how ChatGPT works ‌for ⁠children. The states are also seeking an order forcing the company to give up profits it ​has generated ​from ⁠young users.

Florida’s attorney general was the first to ​sue OpenAI, bringing a lawsuit over ​similar ⁠claims in June. The company is also facing dozens of ⁠lawsuits ​alleging ChatGPT aided in ​mass shootings or other violence.
