The UODO stated that the anonymous complainant alleged that OpenAI neglected to correct erroneous information produced by ChatGPT. The President of UODO, Jan Nowak, said:</p>
<blockquote><p>The case concerns the violation of many provisions on the protection of personal data, so we will ask OpenAI to answer a number of questions.</p></blockquote>
<p>According to reports, the complainant could not discover which of its personal data were used or processed by OpenAI and queries were met with vague or misleading responses. Recently, a number of tech companies, including Microsoft, Google, and Stability AI were sued over copyright issues and personal data infringements when training AI or machine-learning functionalities.</p>

<p>During its last funding round in April, OpenAI raised $3bn from nine investors. This shows that interest in the company and its developments is strong. AI interest also fuels the financial well-being of companies such as Arm and <a href="https://www.leaprate.com/news/google-deepmind-co-founder-calls-for-ethical-nvidia-ai-chips/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nvidia</a>, with no signs of subsiding any time soon.</p>
