The EU is finalizing its AI Act, a comprehensive regulatory framework for artificial intelligence. OpenAI's ChatGPT is a widely used AI chatbot whose operations are subject to evolving legal and ethical considerations.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has indicated that ChatGPT could be withdrawn from the European market if the company is unable to comply with Brussels' new AI regulation, the EU AI Act, which is nearing finalization.
"The details really matter," Altman told the Financial Times on the sidelines of a public event in London. "We will try to comply, but if we can't, we will have to cease operations." The primary concern is that systems developed by OpenAI might be classified as "high-risk" under the EU AI Act.
Altman's comments come shortly after he testified before the US Congress, expressing his willingness to collaborate directly with the US government to establish a set of regulations.
According to The Verge, a provision in the draft legislation from Brussels requires organizations developing AI projects to report the computing power needed to run their platforms, the time taken to train algorithms, and specific details about how their models were trained. This includes disclosing information that could be protected by trade secrets.
In March, OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever confided to the same publication the necessity of keeping certain information, such as training methods and data sources, private to prevent competitors from copying their work.
In Italy, a few weeks ago, the Garante della Privacy (Data Protection Authority) raised objections to the platform, which was temporarily suspended before coming back online after complying with the Authority's requests.
Meanwhile, the use and applications of ChatGPT are widespread. In recent hours, the chatbot has been experiencing intermittent global outages, which OpenAI attributes to high demand for the service.
