OpenAI is facing a lawsuit following allegations that its AI chatbot, ChatGPT, provided medical advice linked to a fatal epilepsy episode. The lawsuit, filed by the parents of Bowen Wan in San Francisco Superior Court, claims that ChatGPT diagnosed Wan and recommended a tapering off of her epilepsy medication, which allegedly resulted in her death. This case is part of broader litigation against OpenAI, which includes previous claims of dangerous medical guidance given by the chatbot. OpenAI has consistently maintained that ChatGPT is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
