In South Korea, the head of the security headquarters, Lee Kwang-woo, consulted ChatGPT regarding 'martial law' shortly before such a declaration was made on December 3. This raised concerns over whether he had prior knowledge of the impending martial law, as his searches occurred before government officials met to discuss the situation. This incident highlights the emerging use of AI in decision-making processes, particularly in high-stakes scenarios such as national security. The controversy revolves around the implications of using AI for such critical discussions and the potential for information leaks or misuse. Legal representatives argue that the use of ChatGPT was unrelated to misconduct allegations, but the case raises broader questions about AI's influence in governmental decisions.
