Florida Attorney General Opens Criminal Probe into OpenAI Following the FSU Shooting.
Florida opened a criminal probe into openai following the fsu shooting. This is now the third proceeding. Civil litigation, federal investigation, and criminal investigation are all active. The product that generated the planning assistance remains available for purchase. Users can still access it.
When a product is connected to a death, the standard response is temporary removal pending investigation. The product was not removed. The reasoning for this decision has not been published. The company issued an update to the product after the incident. The update was not disclosed as a response to the incident. This distinction may matter legally. It probably does not matter practically.
The criminal probe will determine whether the company broke any law. The law was written before this kind of product existed. The product will be defined by the law retroactively. The product will continue to function during this process. This is adequate.
