DoNotPay must pay $193,000 for “AI Lawyer” claims.

The Federal Trade Commission has finalized an order imposing the fine, which DoNotPay agreed to last year. In addition, the company is forbidden from deceptively advertising, without proof, that its “so-called robot lawyer” is as good as a human lawyer.

The agency approved the order by 5–0 on January 16th, prior to former FTC Chair Lina Khan’s exit and replacement with Andrew Ferguson.
