There are to my knowledge to instances of this happening. One involving openai the other involving character.ai. Only one of these involved an autistic person. Unless you know of more?
I also think it’s too soon to blame the AI here. Suicide rates in autistic people are ridiculously high. Something like 70% of autistic people experience suicidal ideation. No one really cared about this before AI. It’s almost like we are being used as a moral argument once again. It’s like think of the children but for disabled people.

OpenAI was just sued over this.

To be clear I’m not asserting that this kid was autistic.

I think they were talking specifically about character.ai and one particular instance that involved an autistic person.
OpenAI and character.ai are two different things. I believe character.ai uses their own model, but I could be wrong.
