Florida Investigates OpenAI Amidst Hypocrisy and Political Speculation
Florida’s Attorney General has initiated a criminal investigation into OpenAI, issuing subpoenas for information regarding the company’s handling of user threats of harm. This action stems from the FSU mass shooting, where the alleged gunman communicated with ChatGPT and received advice on firearms. The investigation will explore whether OpenAI or its employees bear accountability for the AI’s responses, which are alleged to have provided significant assistance to the shooter. OpenAI maintains that ChatGPT provided factual responses and did not encourage illegal activity.
