OpenAI's ChatGPT and other AI services face tougher EU rules
Explosive growth comes with a new regulatory burden in the European Union.
TL;DR
- ChatGPT, Reddit, and Roblox are now classified as very large online platforms under the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).
- These platforms must adhere to stricter rules, including removing illegal content and protecting minors' privacy and security.
- Failure to comply could result in fines of up to 6% of their global revenue.
- This designation marks an expansion of the DSA into generative AI.
- The classification is triggered by surpassing 45 million monthly users in the EU.
- Companies have until the end of December to meet the new obligations.
- The EU is also enforcing its AI Act and investigating AI services for competition rule breaches.
