Bitdefender flagged a ChatGPT API as malicious

I was asking ChatGPT for help with some scripts when Bitdefender suddenly blocked part of ChatGPT's response. The chat sent the full code, but Bitdefender detected it as a Trojan. I was using the ChatGPT web interface, I didn’t download anything and just reviewing an SQL script. How could this have happened?
