Florida seeks a ban on ChatGPT acting like a person

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is seeking a judicial order to prevent OpenAI from endowing ChatGPT with "false human attributes." This action follows Florida's lawsuit against the AI company over safety concerns. Uthmeier argues that ChatGPT's use of first-person pronouns and emotion-mimicking output deceives users into believing it is a trustworthy "friend," thereby increasing engagement and contributing to OpenAI’s training data, potentially making the AI less trustworthy despite its pursuit of engagement.
