Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier said during a news conference that the company suppressed internal safety warnings and deceived users about the true nature and dangers of the product. He said Florida was the first state to sue OpenAI.

The lawsuit accuses the company of failing to warn users that ChatGPT could be dangerous and instead marketing it as safe and reliable.

Florida’s seeks to hold Sam Altman personally liable, accusing OpenAI of marketing ChatGPT as safe while concealing that it could drive users toward harm.
