Italy has banned ChatGPT. Will other countries follow?

ChatGPT is one of the fastest growing applications in history. It has set off a frenzy of competitors trying to play catchup and release their own versions of generative AI. But the standout still is OpenAI’s ChatGPT, backed by Microsoft. But not everyone is a fan. ChatGPT has recently been banned in Italy, and it might not be the last country to do so. We’ve also seen Elon Musk and Apple Co-founder Steve Wozniak sign a petition calling for a pause in developing these AI models so greater safety protocols can be implemented.Today Sascha and Darcy ask - why are there growing calls to ban artificial intelligence programs like ChatGPT?Tell us what you think of The Dive - email us at thedive@equitymates.com.
