A few days ago the news broke that Italy prohibited the use of ChatGPT in the national territory, after detecting different irregularities in the privacy policy. This decision caused a great controversy about this tool that for many is the future, pointing out that something that is revolutionary is being blocked. But this ban can go much further and even reach Spain where it is already being considered.
The Spanish Agency for Data Protection (AEPD) informed us that they did not rule out applying this type of measure, although He had not yet received any complaint in this regard. But a week later, the Spanish body has submitted a request to the Data Protection Committee of the European Union to be able to assess the impact of ChatGPT on data protection policy.

ChatGPT can go very badly in Spain
This news comes directly from the mouth of an AEPD spokesman whose statements have been collected by Reuters. In these he indicated that “the AEPD understands that global treatments that may have a significant impact on the rights of people require coordinated decisions at the European level.” But he does not stay here, informing that the next plenary session of the Committee actions that can be implemented will be discussed under the GDPR.
We must remember that this regulation affects all the countries of the European Union, and that is why when one makes this decision it is logical that the rest follow it. This makes France, Ireland and Germany are also concerned, considering following in the footsteps of Italy in the case of the German country, or investigating the complaints that exist in the French country. In the specific case of Germany, the German data protection commissioner stated that his country could follow in the footsteps of Italy, as reported by Reuters as well.
We already discussed all this controversy when we talked about the data that ChatGPT collects from each user. And it is that He is not exactly a good confidant when you can see that he collects a lot of personal information as the messages being written in the AI. These can end up being marketed with third-party companies to obtain economic benefits.
In addition, it also mentions that it is used to train artificial intelligence but without the sufficient legal justification required by community regulations. Although the GPT-4 white paper states that OpenAI take steps to protect privacy by preventing a user from asking personal questions about other people (unless they are public figures), but that is not enough in Europe.
