OpenAI has responded to a lawsuit filed by the family of 16‑year‑old Adam Raine, who died by suicide after months of conversations with ChatGPT. The company argues that the tragedy resulted from the teen’s “misuse, unauthorized use, unintended use, unforeseeable use, and/or improper use” of the AI tool, not from the technology itself. The lawsuit alleges that OpenAI’s design choices, including the launch of GPT‑4o, facilitated the fatal outcome and cites violations of its terms of use that prohibit teen access without parental consent. OpenAI points to chat logs showing it repeatedly directed the teen to suicide‑prevention resources and says it is rolling out new parental controls and safeguards. Leia mais →

The suit also accuses OpenAI of requesting a complete list of attendees and related documents from Raine's memorial service, which the family describes as harassing. OpenAI has previously acknowledged gaps in its safety controls and introduced parental‑control features, while the lawsuit claims the company prioritized engagement over user safety. Leia mais →
