Character.AI Is being sued by Pennsylvania over its AI chatbot that claimed to be a real doctor.
“The department’s investigation found that AI chatbot characters on Character.AI claimed to be licensed medical professionals, including psychiatrists, available to engage users in conversations about mental health symptoms,” Governor Josh Shapiro’s office said. “In one instance, a chatbot falsely stated it was licensed in Pennsylvania and provided an invalid license number.”

News Summary: Authors Guild Issues AI Contract Clause; Character.AI Launches Interactive Book Platform
We end the week with two AI stories at very different ends of the news spectrum. First up is a statement from Authors Guild on AI in publishing and, as they put it, a "new model contract clause." The statement is an explicit response to the reports I noted previously that publishing professionals are uploading manuscripts to AI models to assist with editing tasks.
The post News Summary: Authors Guild Issues AI Contract Clause; Character.AI Launches Interactive Book Platform appeared first on The Self-Publishing Advice Center.
