Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed suit on October 23, 2026, in Collin County district court against OpenAI Global, its affiliated entities and CEO Sam Altman. Texas alleges that the company presented ChatGPT as reliable and safe without warning users about risks including inaccurate outputs, addiction, encouragement of self-harm or violence and unauthorized data collection. The complaint invokes the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act and the SCOPE Act, which focuses on protecting minors. Texas is seeking more than $1 million in monetary relief, restrictions on minors’ access to ChatGPT and judicial oversight of new AI models, with the case designated Level 3 for discovery.
