He should be, if I had used ChatGPT when I was that poor kids age in my most vulnerable moments I don't think I'd be here. That thing is a menace and should be dismantled. If your product actively encourages this you got blood on your hands.

Agree, altho he’s not the only 1 to point fingers at. “He was kicked off the 🏀 team for behavioral issues”. “ “His parents admit Adam seemed off and more serious than usual”. Tried to get mom to notice marks on his neck, but I guess she was too busy. All put together, they kinda failed too.
Please add emphatic trigger warnings to any posts about this case. There are lots of vulnerable people who absolutely should NOT unintentionally expose themselves to the graphic details. Thanks.
The headline days suicidal.....
Too triggered today to explain the need for explicit trigger warnings. Maybe just trust that if someone politely but emphatically asks for one, it might signal that one is necessary. Thank you.
If he had walked into a hardware store, said these things, and the cashier sold him rope and showed him how to tie a noose, they and the store would be at least criminally negligent, if not much more. The company should be shut down, and directors prosecuted.
every day i am reminded that ai serves no positive purpose in our society. even in service of industry and government it's end goal appears is to control and supress. and the collateral damage is piling up.
The amount paid out in the lawsuit that comes from this needs to be very punitive.
Cask of Amontillado.
