In order to tackle the security vulnerabilities linked to Generative Artificial Intelligence, we analyze ChatGPT as a case study within the framework of Actor-Network Theory. We have discovered a total of nine actors, including both human and non-human creatures. We examine the actors and processes of translation involved in the ethical issues related to ChatGPT and analyze the key players involved in the emergence of moral issues. The objective is to explore the origins of the ethical issues that arise with Generative Artificial Intelligence and provide a particular perspective on the governance of Generative Artificial Intelligence.
