OpenAI's efforts to produce less factually false output from its ChatGPT chatbot are not enough to ensure full compliance with European Union data rules, a task force at the EU's privacy watchdog said.
"Although the measures taken in order to comply with
the transparency principle are beneficial to avoid misinterpretation of the
output of ChatGPT, they are not sufficient to comply with the data accuracy
principle," the task force said in a report released on its website on
Friday.
The body that unites Europe's national privacy watchdogs set
up the task force on ChatGPT last year after national regulators led by Italy's
authority raised concerns about the widely used artificial intelligence
service.
OpenAI did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
The various investigations launched by national privacy
watchdogs in some member states are still ongoing, the report said, adding it
was therefore not yet possible to provide a full description of the results.
The findings were to be understood as a 'common denominator' among national
authorities.
Data accuracy is one of the guiding principles of the EU's
set of data protection rules.
"As a matter of fact, due to the probabilistic nature
of the system, the current training approach leads to a model which may also
produce biased or made up outputs", the report said.
"In addition, the outputs provided by ChatGPT are
likely to be taken as factually accurate by end users, including information
relating to individuals, regardless of their actual accuracy."
