American AI company OpenAI is stuck in legal troubles. The company’s ChatGPT chatbot ChatGPT has been accused of working like a ‘suicide coach’. Last week, 7 separate lawsuits were filed in California, USA, in which ChatGPT has been accused of giving advice to users that could harm themselves and in many cases lead to death. This is not happening for the first time and the company is already facing such legal difficulties.

Serious allegations against OpenAI

The lawsuits accuse OpenAI of negligence, aiding suicide and product liability, and claim that ChatGPT has become psychologically manipulative and dangerously sycophantic. Also, the company has been accused of emphasizing engagement more than user safety. The plaintiffs say all the victims used the chatbot for basic things like school projects, recipe ideas and spiritual guidance. This journey that started with digital assistant has ended in a very dangerous situation.

Demand to strengthen security measures

The lawsuits not only demand compensation for the victims, but also appeal to OpenAI to strengthen its security measures. The victim’s side says that as soon as a user talks about suicide or self-harm, ChatGPT should stop that conversation. Apart from this, if any user shows signs of taking his own life, then an alert should be sent to his emergency contact.

OpenAI gave this response

Responding to the lawsuits, an OpenAI spokesperson said that these are heartbreaking incidents and the lawsuits are being studied to understand them. He said ChatGPT has been trained to reduce mental and emotional stress and advise people to seek help in the real world.
