Finally some facts - the rest of the thread is wild speculation and blind judgement. Yes, few countries lose access to strongest available LLM while the investigation is undergoing. There are bigger things at stake. I don't think this is about current model containing personal data. IMO this is about "Open"AI operation, a US based company (with US lack of regulation and disregard for user privacy) collecting the data about the rest of the world. And we are talking about _very_ personal data. The kind of data people would be reluctant to share even with their doctors and psychologists, but will still mention to the non-judgemental chatbot with a memory they can seemingly wipe at will. This is potentially dangerous. Governments should at least investigate how this data is collected and used. The funny thing is, both sides of Atlantic benefit when EU is enforcing the GDPR. Italy, France, Germany... that's already a big enough market for a more ethical competitor to step in and provide an alternative LLM. We desperately need another player in this field.
