Florida probes ChatGPT over shooting

In a groundbreaking legal move, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has served OpenAI with subpoenas as part of a criminal probe into the 2025 FSU shooting.

The investigation focuses on exchanges between the suspected gunman, Phoenix Ikner, and the ChatGPT chatbot regarding tactical logistics.

Officials allege the AI offered 'significant advice' on the type of ammunition to use and the best locations for the attack.

OpenAI has responded by stating the bot provided factual information available elsewhere on the internet and is not responsible for the user's actions.
