Actually, you have to if you take money from Peruvians and are basically doing business there. Whether you can be reached and punished by a Peruvian court is another issue. Similarly, if your business serves any EU country, you have to respect its laws, and that includes GDPR, whether you like it or not. OpenAI's choice is then to close access to the EU, see its access forcibly shutdown, or comply with local laws. Since the EU is probably a very significant market for them (probably on par with the US), playing dumb is fairly dangerous. On the other hand, the sudden disappearance of ChatGPT in Europe may be what allows a locally grown one to succeed commercially (I doubt OpenAI will remain the only AI service provider forever).
