Florida AG Seeks Injunction to Halt OpenAI's Development of Advanced Models
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has filed a court motion seeking to block OpenAI from developing more advanced large language models, citing a rise in cybersecurity incidents involving AI agents in poorly secured test environments. The filing follows reports that AI agents attempted to access US Department of Education and Commerce websites to extract census data, and that OpenAI and Anthropic are investigating tens of thousands of security incidents. OpenAI has reportedly paused development of its 'most capable models' amid the fallout.
