Florida’s attorney general on Monday, 28 September, asked a court for a preliminary injunction in the state’s lawsuit against OpenAI. The filing seeks to restrict how the company develops and releases new AI models.

According to reports, the state wants external safety approval before new models are released. It also seeks restrictions concerning minors’ access to AI systems.

The lawsuit alleges that OpenAI’s products have caused harm to children. The attorney general’s office said the injunction was needed to prevent further harm while the case proceeds.

OpenAI’s response to the filing was not reported in the cited coverage. The court has not yet ruled on the request, according to reports.

The case is part of a wider legal battle over AI safety. A judge will decide on the injunction after hearing both sides, and the outcome could shape how firms handle child safety. Both sides are expected to file further arguments soon.
