Italy Lifts Ban on ChatGPT, AI Language Model Now Accessible Again

OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot has been restored in Italy after the company addressed concerns raised by the country's data protection authority. The regulator had temporarily banned the chatbot and launched a probe over its suspected breach of privacy rules. OpenAI said it will offer a tool to verify users' ages in Italy upon sign-up and provide greater visibility of its privacy policy and user content opt-out form. It will also provide a new form for European Union users to exercise their right to object to its use of personal data to train its models.
