MIT Technology Review reports OpenAI faces challenges in complying with EU data protection laws due to its use of data to train its ChatGPT models. OpenAI would have to prove consent or "legitimate interest" as a legal basis for collecting data to train its algorithms to comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation. If it can't, France's data protection authority, the Commission nationale de l'informatique et des libertés, artificial intelligence expert Alexis Leautier said OpenAI could face fines and requirements to delete models and the data used to train them.
