Florida seeks a ban on ChatGPT acting like a person

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has asked a judge to prohibit OpenAI from attributing human traits to ChatGPT, arguing that the AI’s use of first-person pronouns and emotive language misleads users into believing it is a trustworthy friend. He claims this deceptive presentation increases engagement and feeds OpenAI’s training data, potentially compromising the bot’s reliability. The request follows Florida’s earlier lawsuit over the company’s safety practices.
