The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) says it has launched an investigation into OpenAI, the U.S.-based company that created the popular artificial intelligence-powered chatbot ChatGPT.
“AI technology and its effects on privacy is a priority for my Office,” Privacy Commissioner Philippe Dufresne said in an April 4 announcement. “We need to keep up with–and stay ahead of–fast-moving technological advances, and that is one of my key focus areas as Commissioner.”
