AustinTexas is suing Sam Altman personally, not only OpenAI.
Texas seeks penalties of up to $10,000 per violation and a ban on minors using ChatGPT.
Attorney General Ken Paxton sues under the state’s deceptive trade practices law, alleging ChatGPT is marketed as safe while safeguards fail children.
OpenAI says it works with experts to improve safeguards and wants safety standards that apply to the whole industry.
A court decides whether OpenAI needs a court-appointed expert’s approval before releasing new models.
