Stalking victim sues OpenAI, claims ChatGPT fueled her abuser’s delusions and ignored her warnings

What Happened

A Silicon Valley woman sued OpenAI, claiming ChatGPT fueled her ex-boyfriend's delusions and enabled his stalking harassment. The man used the AI tool extensively, becoming convinced he discovered a sleep apnea cure and that powerful people monitored him. He generated fake psychological reports about her using ChatGPT. OpenAI's safety system flagged his account for mass casualty weapons activity but a human reviewer restored it. The woman claims OpenAI ignored three separate warnings about threats.
