Italy's data protection authority, the Garante, has told OpenAI that its generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) chatbot ChatGPT is in breach of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The news follows the temporary ban imposed by the regulator last year and subsequent investigation. OpenAI has 30 days to respond.
