    Florida invokes extinction fears in legal bid to halt OpenAI development

    Florida seeks a temporary injunction to stop OpenAI from developing its “reckless, unacceptably risky product” without third-party approved safety guardrails. The state’s lawsuit, filed in June, claims ChatGPT threatens public safety by targeting vulnerable groups, and cites the Hugging Face hacking incident and OpenAI’s recent halt of training its most-capable models. Florida argues OpenAI repeatedly fails to monitor its AI and is reluctant to disclose rogue activity.
