EU to Regulate OpenAI Under Digital Services Act
The European Commission plans to extend the Digital Services Act (DSA) to include OpenAI, classifying it as a very large platform due to its significant user base in the EU.
According to Handelsblatt, the DSA applies to platforms with over 45 million monthly active users in the EU, a threshold that ChatGPT exceeds. The legislation aims to enhance the removal of illegal content and simplify reporting mechanisms for users, while also strengthening protections for minors.
