BREAKING: Chatgpt Down For Several Users On LS Election 2024 Results Day, Openai Says Investigating Issue


(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) OpenAI's viral generative AI chatbot, ChatGPT, was down for several users across the world and for Indians on Lok Sabha elections 2024 results and people were posting on social media about how they couldn't access the tool.

According to OpenAI, it has interfered with clandestine efforts meant to manipulate Indian elections through the use of AI models. This information was made available just four days before the 2024 Lok Sabha Election results are expected to be announced.

Flagged in May, the activity targeting Indian polls was highlighted in the report, which also identifies the "network was operated by STOIC, a political campaign management firm in Israel." The OpenAI report highlights campaigns utilizing AI for covert operations aimed at manipulating public opinion or influencing political outcomes.

Meanwhile,
OpenAI withdrew one of its ChatGPT voices, "Sky," after it stirred up controversy for sounding similar to Hollywood actress and Marvel star Scarlett Johansson's voice in the film "Her," where she portrays an AI named Samantha.

Johansson has criticised OpenAI for featuring a voice in its latest ChatGPT product that closely resembled her own. She disclosed that she had turned down an offer from OpenAI to lend her voice to their AI system last year due to "personal reasons." She expressed feelings of "shock" and "anger" upon encountering the voice, which she described as so similar to hers that even her closest friends and media outlets couldn't distinguish between them.
