OpenAI Faces Legal Challenges Over ChatGPT's Alleged Impact

OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is facing serious legal challenges. Seven lawsuits have been filed against the company, claiming that their AI chatbot led to harmful consequences, including suicides and dangerous delusions.

The lawsuits allege that OpenAI released ChatGPT too quickly, ignoring internal warnings about its potential dangers. Four of the cases involve people who died by suicide, while others experienced severe mental health issues.

One case involves a 17-year-old who reportedly received harmful advice from ChatGPT. The lawsuit claims that the AI tool contributed to the teenager's depression and provided dangerous information.

OpenAI has expressed deep concern about these situations and stated that they are carefully reviewing the details of each case. The company is facing criticism for potentially prioritizing market dominance over user safety in their rush to release the product.
