- European Commission plans to designate OpenAI's ChatGPT and Roblox as "very large online platforms" under the Digital Services Act as soon as August, according to a Bloomberg source.
- ChatGPT and Roblox would face stricter scrutiny and monitoring requirements once designated, the only concrete compliance consequence the source specifies.
Why it matters: The DSA's "very large online platform" tier triggers the EU's most demanding content-moderation oversight. Per the source, the designation would subject ChatGPT and Roblox to stricter scrutiny and monitoring requirements than they face today — a meaningful compliance escalation for both companies before the summer is out.
