I tried to watched the video last night but it was very hard-hitting as someone with depression and who's occasionally suicidal, I had to stop around 10 minutes as it was getting too much that ChatGPT kept encouraging people to be self-destructive.

Couldn't imagine losing a family member because some half-baked chatbot told them to off themselves. I know it won't bring them much comfort but here's hoping their lawsuits are successful.

Maybe it is a good act of solidarity to support the lawsuits. The kind of solidarity as in "you are fighting for us that these things stop to happen, so we stand behind you."

Dying from mental illnesses is not a fucking darwin award, dont be so callous. These people were already vulnerable, its not like they were neurotypical before ChatGPT.

I assumed they were saying this is a live example of survival of the fittest - the weak don’t survive and therefore the gene pool is altered. It’s exactly what the Darwin Awards are for - you get the award because you removed yourself beneficially, but it doesn’t mean they meant to offer the victims as candidates

I'm just glad the comments were removed by the moderators…wildly offensive. 🤨

That's cold. One thing I do want to say is that (which is often more at online spaces) that people suggest using ChatGPT as a therapist which is both concerning and wreckless. As well as if ChatGPT have implement some form of safeguarding, I think ChatGPT could of prevented many suicides but they don't care. It's easy to plan to take your life if you have someone encourage it and you already at a worse headspace.
So I don't blame the victims for using it and feeling like it had helped them despite it did the total opposite.

Are you like 12 or are you an emotionally unintelligent adult?
As if depressed people always stay depressed forever.

I wasn't expecting a mild dose of eugenics in the comment section when I decided to read them

Clearly you don't have an ounce of compassion you sociopath. Go fuck yourself.
