EU regulators are slow to define rules for regulating ChatGPT, despite its rapid user growth. OpenAI's chatbot must comply with the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) and AI Act, but clarity on its categorization and requirements is lacking until mid-2026. The discrepancy between these laws and their alignment with ChatGPT's functionalities pose challenges in assessing risks, particularly regarding public health and elections. Potential penalties for non-compliance could be substantial.
