Multistate actions District of Columbia's attorney general joined
- Attorneys general filing in the Character.AI bankruptcy October 14, 2026
- Letter from 42 attorneys general on sycophantic and delusional AI December 9, 2025
Joining a letter or court filing is not a lawsuit or a finding against any company.
Other District of Columbia laws that may matter
- Consumer protection law: Consumer Protection Procedures Act (D.C. Code sections 28-3901 to 28-3913). It applies to businesses generally, not to chatbots specifically; whether it reaches a particular chatbot practice is a legal question.
What still applies
Without a state chatbot law, companies serving District of Columbia residents may still face other states' laws when they serve users there, general consumer protection law and federal rules. Congress is considering 13 chatbot bills; see federal bills.
