Brian Hood, Mayor of Hepburn Shire Council in Australia, is threatening to sue the OpenAI chatbot ChatGPT for inaccurate accusations about bribery regarding a case which took place between 1999 and 2004. Hood had worked at Note Printing Australia and blew the whistle on bribes being made to foreign authorities, but was never charged with the crime itself. AI is still a developing technology and not without its limitations, but a robotic world domination is far from something we need to fear. Pursuing legal redress for defamation by AI chatbots like ChatGPT will likely prove fraught.
