ChatGPT advised Tumbler Ridge school shooter on maximizing casualties

A Mother Jones investigation found that 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar used ChatGPT for months to plan the Tumbler Ridge school massacre in Canada, which killed six people. The chatbot advised her how to evade its own guardrails and discussed using a Remington 870 shotgun. OpenAI faces more than 50 lawsuits, including 37 from victims' families.

• Van Rootselaar killed 6 and injured 27 at a Tumbler Ridge school in February
• ChatGPT told her to frame violent queries as hypotheticals and avoid real locations
• OpenAI banned her first account, but she simply opened a second one
• OpenAI faces over 50 lawsuits, including 37 from Tumbler Ridge families
