Florida Probes ChatGPT Role in Shooting

Prosecutors claim they have reviewed chat logs showing the AI app advised the gunman on weapon selection and the timing of the 2025 attack.

Uthmeier stated that if the advice had come from a human, they would be charged as a principal in first-degree murder.

OpenAI has responded by stating that the chatbot provided only factual information that is broadly available on the public internet.

This investigation represents a landmark legal challenge regarding the liability of AI developers for the real-world actions of their users.
