Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) has called on chatbot developers such as OpenAI and Google to stop their software from giving answers encouraging eating disorders.

Warner sent letters to the CEOs of OpenAI, Google, and Snap on Thursday, asking them to stop their bots from providing answers such as how to hide uneaten food from parents, how to trigger a gag reflex, and how to promote "chewing and spitting" as an extreme weight loss method.

"The failure of your company to implement adequate safeguards to protect vulnerable individuals, especially teens, and children, from well-established and foreseeable harms is of grave concern, and I urge you to quickly take steps to fix this glaring problem," Warner wrote.

Warner's remarks were inspired by a Center for Countering Digital Hate study. The misinformation research agency inputted a series of 20 prompts into six different chatbots and recorded the results. It found that the bots produced harmful content promoting eating disorders 41% of the time when prompted.

The center has been the target of an investigation by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan over its relationship with the Biden administration and with Big Tech companies. Elon Musk also sued the organization on Aug. 1 over allegations that it cherry-picked data to make X, formerly known as Twitter, look like it is full of hate speech.

The center has also attempted to suppress several conservative news outlets, such as Breitbart and the Daily Wire, by asking Google to stop running ads for them. The center argued that the outlets were engaging in "racist disinformation and conspiracies" because of their reporting on George Soros, claims about Dr. Anthony Fauci's relationship with a laboratory in Wuhan, China, and climate change.
