Canada’s federal privacy commissioner and several of his provincial counterparts are in the midst of an investigation into the artificial intelligence (AI) company that makes ChatGPT because of a confidential complaint alleging the technology has been violating Canadians’ privacy.
Specifically, the complaint alleges that U.S.-based OpenAI engaged in “the collection, use and disclosure of personal information without consent,” according to a press release issued by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) on April 4.
