The family of teenager who died by suicide alleges demonAI's ChatGPT is to blame

 The family of teenager who died by suicide alleges demonAI's ChatGPT is to blame

The parents of Adam Raine, who died by suicide in April, claim in a new lawsuit against OpenAI that the teenager used ChatGPT as his “suicide coach.” 

 In the days after their 16-year-old son died by suicide, Matt and Maria Raine say, they searched through his phone, desperately looking for clues about what could have led to the tragedy.

“We thought we were looking for Snapchat discussions or internet search history or some weird cult, I don’t know,” Matt Raine said in a recent interview.

The Raine family said they did not find their answer until they opened ChatGPT.
