State of Iowa ex rel. Brenna Bird v. OpenAI Global, LLC et al. is a state consumer-protection enforcement action concerning the marketing and safety of ChatGPT.[2]

Claims and procedural history

The state alleges that OpenAI misled consumers about ChatGPT’s safety and failed to disclose foreseeable risks, with particular concern for children and vulnerable users.[1]

The action is one of eight separate state suits announced in October 2026. It proceeds in Iowa’s own court rather than as a single consolidated federal case.[1][2]
