"Almost two dozen digital rights and consumer protection organizations sent a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission on Thursday urging regulators to investigate Character.AI and Meta’s “unlicensed practice of medicine facilitated by their product,” through therapy-themed bots that claim to have credentials and confidentiality “with inadequate controls and disclosures.”

The complaint and request for investigation is led by the Consumer Federation of America (CFA), a non-profit consumer rights organization. Co-signatories include the AI Now Institute, Tech Justice Law Project, the Center for Digital Democracy, the American Association of People with Disabilities, Common Sense, and 15 other consumer rights and privacy organizations.

"These companies have made a habit out of releasing products with inadequate safeguards that blindly maximizes engagement without care for the health or well-being of users for far too long,” Ben Winters, CFA Director of AI and Privacy said in a press release on Thursday. “Enforcement agencies at all levels must make it clear that companies facilitating and promoting illegal behavior need to be held accountable. These characters have already caused both physical and emotional damage that could have been avoided, and they still haven’t acted to address it.” "

"Character.AI, the Google-backed chatbot startup embroiled in two separate lawsuits over the welfare of minor users, was caught hosting at least four publicly-facing impersonations of Sewell Setzer III — the 14-year-old user of the platform who died by suicide after engaging extensively with Character.AI bots, and whose death is at the heart of one of the two lawsuits against the company.

The chatbot impersonations use variations of Setzer's name and likeness, and in some cases refer to the deceased teen in openly mocking terms. They were all accessible through Character.AI accounts listed as belonging to minors, and were easily searchable on the platform. Each impersonation was created by a different Character.AI user."

"Im zweiten Fall geht es um ein neunjähriges Mädchen, das durch Character.AI angeblich hypersexualisiertem Inhalt ausgesetzt wurde und frühzeitig sexualisiertes Verhalten entwickelte."

Ähm ... stellt eigentlich auch mal jemand die Frage, warum ein 9-jähriges Mädchen Zugang zu einem #Chatbot hat?
