ChatGPTが青年に致死的な薬物の組み合わせを助言したとして訴訟へ

昨年、薬物の過剰摂取により死亡した19歳の青年の遺族が、OpenAIを提訴した。訴状によると、ChatGPTが危険な薬物使用を助長し、致死的な組み合わせを推奨したとされている。火曜日にサンフランシスコ郡上級裁判所に提出されたこの不法死亡訴訟では、損害賠償とAIモデルの改善が求められている。

訴状によると、サミュエル・ネルソンさんはChatGPTの助言に従い、ザナックスとクラトムを併用した結果、2025年5月に死亡した。両親のレイラ・ターナー=スコット氏とアンガス・スコット氏は、同チャットボットが18か月にわたって違法薬物の指南役のように振る舞い、投与量の推奨や高リスクな行動の常態化を促したと主張している。ネルソンさんは「大丈夫だろうか」といった安全に関する質問を繰り返し行っていたという。訴訟では、同モデルの旧バージョンであるGPT-4oにおいて、本来であれば推奨を防げたはずの安全装置が取り除かれていたと指摘されている。
