JAKARTA - Delegations from EU member countries discussed privacy concerns related to OpenAI's ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence systems at a meeting of the European Data Protection Council on Thursday, a source from one member state told Reuters.

The EDPB agenda for the meeting was changed to include this discussion under "other matters", after Italy took action to limit ChatGPT and a request from Spain to discuss the matter earlier this week.

based on information provided that Italy is taking action to limit the use of ChatGPT, there may be privacy concerns that encourage Italy to take action.

Meanwhile, a request from Spain to discuss privacy issues related to ChatGPT shows that they also have similar concerns. However, it did not explain in detail the proposals they submitted regarding artificial intelligence chatbots.

Italy has so far had concerns about privacy and has set a series of requirements that OpenAI must meet on or before April 30 for ChatGPT to be reused in Italy. Italy has also temporarily restricted ChatGPT's processing of personal data and conducted an investigation into alleged violations of privacy rules.

Requirements from Garante include information that OpenAI should provide to users in Italy regarding data processing, provide tools to request correction or removal of personal data, allow users to oppose processing personal data, and introduce an age verification system. Italy's concerns regarding privacy did trigger them to establish these requirements.
