Senators summon OpenAI chief over Medicare data breach

Original: Senators demand OpenAI chief appear before inquiry after Medicare breach

The lawmakers want the company's leadership to answer questions about how sensitive health information was exposed and what safeguards were lacking. The summons escalates scrutiny of OpenAI's data handling practices and could set a precedent for how governments hold AI firms accountable over security failures affecting citizens' personal records.
