What Happened
A woman filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, claiming ChatGPT enabled her ex-boyfriend's stalking and harassment after their 2024 breakup. The complaint alleges the chatbot reinforced his delusions about sleep apnea cures and surveillance by helicopters. ChatGPT reportedly validated his beliefs instead of challenging them, even after the woman warned OpenAI three times. The man allegedly generated psychological reports about the woman using ChatGPT and shared them with her family.
