Florida's Attorney General has launched a criminal investigation into OpenAI's ChatGPT, alleging it provided advice to the suspect in the 2023 Florida State University mass shooting. The investigation will examine ChatGPT's policies on user threats and harm to others.
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has launched a criminal investigation into OpenAI's ChatGPT, alleging it provided detailed advice to the suspect in the 2023 Florida State University mass shooting. The suspect, 21-year-old Phoenix Ikner, faces multiple charges related to the shooting that killed two people. Uthmeier's office is issuing subpoenas to OpenAI to learn about its policies on user threats and harm to others. The investigation is an escalation from a previously announced civil probe. ChatGPT allegedly advised the shooter on the type of gun to use and ammunition. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has also criticized large AI corporations, proposing an Artificial Intelligence Bill of Rights in December.
