دعوى قضائية تطالب بوقف تطوير أقوى نماذج الذكاء الاصطناعي

A group of American organizations concerned with consumer protection and digital safety filed a lawsuit today (Thursday) against five of the largest technology companies, demanding a halt to the development and deployment of new and advanced artificial intelligence models, warning of risks that could threaten public safety and go beyond human control.

The lawsuit, filed in the Superior Court in San Francisco, California, targets "OpenAI," "Google," "Meta," "Anthropic," and the artificial intelligence sector of "SpaceX."

Concerns About Losing Control

The plaintiff organizations argued that the companies continue to develop increasingly autonomous AI systems, despite warnings about the potential for them to cause serious harm, pointing to reports of cyberattacks linked to these systems and the risks of losing control over them as their capabilities evolve.

The lawsuit is based on California's Unfair Competition Law, accusing the companies of endangering public health and safety and causing potential harm to systems and digital properties.

Demands to Halt New Models

The organizations requested the court to issue an order preventing the companies from developing or deploying new AI models, along with taking measures to ensure that the community is not exposed to what they described as catastrophic risks.

This lawsuit comes at a time when calls are increasing in the U.S. for stricter oversight of AI technologies, amid a debate about the ability of developing companies to ensure the safety of their systems before releasing more advanced versions.

The targeted companies did not issue an immediate response to requests for comment, according to reports from Reuters and the Associated Press.
