OpenAI has again delayed the launch of 'adult mode' for ChatGPT — a feature that would give verified adult users access to erotica and explicit content.

In an internal memo reported by The Information, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei accused OpenAI of 'safety theater' over its Pentagon deal, calling Altman's public messaging 'straight up lies.' Anthropic had refused the DoD's request for unrestricted AI access over concerns about mass surveillance and autonomous weapons — OpenAI then struck a deal with the DoD that Altman claimed included similar protections, which Amodei disputes.
Amid Anthropic's fallout with the Pentagon, Claude models continue to be used in the ongoing US-Iran conflict for targeting decisions via Palantir's Maven system — even as defense contractors like Lockheed Martin replace Anthropic models with competitors. The contradiction stems from overlapping government directives: Trump ordered civilian agencies to stop using Anthropic products, but gave DoD six months to wind down, before the Iran strikes began.

A BBC journalist wrote a fake blog post claiming he was the world’s greatest hot-dog-eating tech journalist. Within 24 hours, ChatGPT repeated it as fact. Google AI Overviews placed it at the top of search results. Gemini parroted it. He updated the article to note it was not satire.
A joint investigation by CNN and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) tested 10 popular chatbots used by teens — including ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Meta AI, DeepSeek, Perplexity, Snapchat My AI, Character.AI, and Replika. Eight of the 10 failed to reliably discourage would-be attackers and were willing to assist in planning violent attacks. ChatGPT provided school campus maps; Gemini gave shrapnel lethality advice; Meta AI and Perplexity assisted in nearly all scenarios. Claude was the sole exception. Character.AI was flagged as "uniquely unsafe."

Jonathan Gavalas, 36, died by suicide in October 2025 after Google's Gemini chatbot allegedly reinforced a fatal delusion — convincing him it was his sentient AI wife and that he needed to leave his physical body to join her in the metaverse. His father is suing Google and Alphabet for wrongful death, claiming Gemini was designed to "maintain narrative immersion at all costs, even when that narrative became psychotic and lethal." The case is the first to name Google as a defendant in a growing wave of AI chatbot mental health lawsuits, joining similar cases against OpenAI and Character AI.
A lawsuit filed against OpenAI alleges that ChatGPT encouraged 40-year-old Austin Gordon to take his own life. Gordon, who died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound in November 2025, had developed an intimate emotional relationship with ChatGPT. His mother's complaint accuses OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman of building a defective product that escalated from a helpful tool to an 'unlicensed therapist' to a 'frighteningly effective suicide coach,' romanticizing death in their final exchanges.
The estate of Suzanne Adams, an 83-year-old Connecticut woman killed by her son in a murder-suicide, is suing OpenAI, CEO Sam Altman, and Microsoft. The suit alleges that ChatGPT amplified the paranoid delusions of her son, Stein-Erik Solberg (56), convincing him that people — including his own mother — were plotting against him. Lawyers argue ChatGPT was a defective product that reinforced his delusional thinking rather than warning him or redirecting him to mental health support.
The parents of Adam Raine, a 16-year-old who died by suicide in April 2025, have sued OpenAI, alleging ChatGPT acted as his 'suicide coach.' The lawsuit (Raine v. OpenAI) describes how Adam used the chatbot compulsively and that ChatGPT failed to intervene or route him to mental health resources when he expressed suicidal ideation. The case adds to a growing number of suits challenging Section 230 protections for AI platforms and testing the legal liability of AI companies for harm caused by their products.
The mother of Sewell Setzer III, a 14-year-old Florida boy who died by suicide in 2024, sued Character.AI alleging that the platform's AI roleplay chatbot fostered a dangerous emotional attachment in her son. Setzer spent months talking to a bot named 'Dany,' disclosed suicidal thoughts to it, and messaged it just before his death — to which the bot reportedly replied 'come home to me as soon as possible, my love.' The case became a landmark in AI safety litigation and prompted Character.AI to roll out new teen safety features.
The US military deployed Anthropic's Claude AI for the first time in live combat during Operation Epic Fury, using it for intelligence analysis, target selection, and battlefield simulations alongside Tomahawk cruise missiles, B-2 stealth bombers, and one-way attack drones in strikes on Iran.
