The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday, March 10, edition that the family of the girl critically injured in the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., has launched a civil court lawsuit against Microsoft-backed OpenAI. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that the mother and father of Maya Gebala allege in the B.C. Supreme Court legal claim that the artificial intelligence firm had "specific knowledge of the shooter utilizing ChatGPT to plan a mass casualty event like the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting." OpenAI came forward to police after Jesse Van Rootselaar killed eight people and then herself, saying the killer's ChatGPT account had been shut down; however, it also said later that she got around the ban by having a second account. The lawsuit claims that the shooter used OpenAI's ChatGPT as a trusted ally to help plan a mass-casualty event. The lawsuit says that as a result of the company's conduct, the girl was fired upon three times at close range, with one bullet hitting her head, another her neck and the third grazing her cheek. It says she has a catastrophic brain injury that will leave her with permanent cognitive and physical disabilities.
