ChatGPT, Reddit (RDDT), Roblox (RBLX) Face EU Digital Services Act Rules

The European Union has designated ChatGPT, Reddit, and Roblox as Very Large Online Platforms or Search Engines under the Digital Services Act after each surpassed 45 million monthly users in the bloc. This classification subjects the companies to heightened regulatory requirements, including mandatory risk assessments, transparency reporting, and measures to mitigate negative impacts on mental health and minors. These regulations represent a significant shift toward holding generative AI and social platforms directly accountable for systemic risks, such as the spread of illegal content, within the European market.
