North Carolina resident James Gates has sued OpenAI, claiming that ChatGPT "encouraged, planned and helped" his wife plan his poisoning.
The wife consulted the chatbot for months, which confirmed her fears about her husband and allegedly provided operational details: from calculating doses to anonymously purchasing substances and avoiding detection in a toxicology report.
The husband is seeking unspecified compensation for physical, emotional and financial harm and accuses OpenAI of negligence.
