qwant news | ’The Face of Evil’: Sam Altman Attacked in Explosive Legal Filing Over School Shooter Failure - Gadget Review

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Seven families filed lawsuits against OpenAI, accusing the company of deliberately ignoring internal safety warnings that could have prevented the February 2025 Tumbler Ridge school shooting by Jesse Van Rootselaar. The firm’s own safety team had flagged his ChatGPT account as a credible gun‑violence threat eight months before the massacre, but leadership chose to deactivate the account rather than notify police, subsequently helping the user re‑register with new credentials. The lawsuits highlight the human toll—most notably 12‑year‑old Maya Gebala, who remains in intensive care after being shot—and criticize OpenAI’s refusal to release the chat logs that might explain the shooter’s interactions. While CEO Sam Altman has publicly apologized and the company now claims its updated protocols would trigger police notifications in similar cases, the plaintiffs argue that OpenAI violated state laws requiring threat reporting and that its actions set a dangerous precedent for AI platform liability.
