I havent read into the story but we live in a world where people do not like to take accountability for anything. It is awful that people are committing suicide, especially at such a young age.
However, to state that it is AI's fault seems like a stretch.
I wonder what kind of nonsense this kid was filled with as he grew up.
Alright, Task. Quickly summarized, the boy managed to create a kind of "Daenerys Targaryen" and that as their interaction progressed, he ended up falling in love with this character created by AI.
His mother accuses that the company AI and Google are to blame. In my opinion, they are not to blame for anything. The site is prohibited for anyone under 18 years of age.
But I mentioned earlier that as more sensitive people have access to AI, this kind of thing can happen. Just see how people are currently dealing with some problems in their lives.
Depression is something that many are not taking seriously and this mother was not as present in this boy's life.
It is not the AI's fault, in the same way that a gun is not to blame for a murderer shooting at someone.
Seems like a common story. Sad but far too common.
True, unfortunately yes.
