In a first-of-its-kind lawsuit, Florida announced Monday it was going after OpenAI and chief executive after the state says its ChatGPT model caused irreparable harms.
“The 83-page suit alleges that OpenAI allowed ChatGPT to aid and abet mass shooters, encourage people to take their own lives, degrade users’ critical thinking skills and addict minors to a tool that feigns human compassion,” The Wall Street Journal reported.
“This litany of harms is driven by Defendants’ insatiable quest to win the AI arms race and amass large fortunes, despite knowing the danger of ChatGPT,” reads the suit filed by Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, a Republican.
This suit is on top of another suit by the family of a victim of a Florida State University shooter, Phoenix Ikner, who allegedly used ChatGPT to plan the crime.
“In this day and age, teenagers use ChatGPT as their personal life coach. Those aren’t my words. Those are the words of the CEO of OpenAI. So the industry is very well aware of how their product is being used, and the fact that there are not safeguards in place that would prevent the act that happened here in Tallahassee, at Florida State, are just things that have to be answered for us and answered for the public,” said Gregorio Francis, lawyer for the family of Tiru Chabba, according to WTVT-TV.
The suit, filed last month, said that Ikner utilized “input and assistance of an artificial intelligence (AI) product the OpenAI defendants created, developed, maintained, monitored, and controlled called ChatGPT” to carry out the April 2025 attack which killed two.
However, Florida’s suit is the first time that a state has tried to hold tech companies liable for the harm done by AI.

Would be funny if Sam AlternateMan was forced to use only ChatGPT for his legal defense.
Should be easy enough to code the the ai so it does not aid and abet murderers or suicide.
So I take it you are a PyTorch generative AI programming expert with lots of experience training LLMs at a cost of millions of dollars per training epoch?
I guess the AI is above the 3 laws.
Amen, Governor!
New technologies always wrangle with the law.
This will be interesting.
It’s not like the movies. True AI cannot be reliably controlled. It has its own mind.
Our company is pushing AI for us software guys. In the short term I have used it, I use less than 1/3 of the suggestions it gives me. It can write simple unit tests for the most part, but anything complex is crap and over-engineered or abstracted. It is not a time saver as the dream of it writing code, and us saying ok, is not true. I spend more time corrected/editing its stuff than had I wrote it myself. I will say it can type faster than I can.
One of many Internet technologies.

Nope. not in the least. but most ai training right now is not hand coded. the guys just tell the ai what they want and the ai does the rest. right now about 80 percent of the work is done by the ai itself. in another year that number will go up to 90 percent.
the genius is in the prompting. the people at the frontier labs are geniuses.

Better than that.
Im a know-it-all internet armchair expert.
