Italy opens probe into OpenAI's new video tool Sora
Watchdog said OpenAI has 20 days to provide information on a series of issues
Sora, unveiled in February but still in a test phase and not yet available to the public, can create realistic videos of up to a minute long via simple user prompts.
The watchdog said OpenAI - which also makes chatbot ChatGPT and the image-generating DALL-E - has 20 days to provide information on a series of issues.
They include what data is collected and used to train the tool, "if it concerns personal data, and if those include certain categories (religious or philosophical beliefs, political opinions, health, sexual life)".
It also wants to know if Sora will comply with European data protection rules if it is released in the EU.
Italian authorities temporarily blocked OpenAI's chatbot ChatGPT at the end of March last year, accusing it of not respecting European regulations and not having a system in place to verify users' ages.
