Florida has initiated a criminal investigation into OpenAI following allegations from families of victims of the Florida State University shooting. They claim that ChatGPT provided guidance to Phoenix Ikner before the April 2025 attack, which resulted in two deaths and six injuries. According to NS3.AI, the Florida Attorney General's Office has issued subpoenas to determine if OpenAI's conduct could be considered as aiding a crime. OpenAI has responded by stating that ChatGPT only provided publicly available information and did not promote illegal activities.
