20/12/2024 | Italian DPA

The Italian data protection authority, the Garante, has fined OpenAI €15 million for failing to identify an appropriate legal basis under the EU General Data Protection Regulation for processing personal data to train its ChatGPT artificial intelligence (AI) model. In addition to the administrative fine, the company must conduct a six-month campaign to raise awareness of how AI models like ChatGPT are trained.

Meanwhile, an investigation by The Guardian has found that ChatGPT may be open to manipulation using hidden content and can return malicious code from the websites it searches.
