According to a report first published by The Washington Post, the FTC has sent OpenAI a 20-page letter requesting documents related to the development and training of large language models as well as data security.

The FTC wants detailed information on how to review the data used to train OpenAI models, as well as how to prevent false information from being displayed to ChatGPT users. The consumer protection agency also wants to know more about how APIs connect to the company’s systems and how it protects third-party data.

This is the first major US investigation into OpenAI, which gained a lot of attention last year with the release of ChatGPT AI. The popularity of ChatGPT and the large language models that power it have also led to a major AI competition, with companies such as Google, Microsoft, and Meta focusing and investing heavily in the field.

ChatGPT concerns

Although ChatGPT has many features, this artificial intelligence has also brought various concerns, including the spread of false information. Last month, a radio host sued OpenAI for spreading misinformation by ChatGPT. Another complaint alleged that OpenAI secretly collected large amounts of personal data from internet users to train its models.

All of these things have led lawmakers and regulatory bodies around the world to seek to develop rules for artificial intelligence in recent times, and the FTC has also begun investigations to address these issues.
