Facing teen suicide suits, Character. AI rolls out safety measures
The California-based company, founded by former Google engineers, is among several firms offering AI companions — chatbots designed to provide conversation, entertainment and emotional support through human-like interactions.
In a Florida lawsuit filed in October, a mother claimed the platform bears responsibility for her 14-year-old son's suicide.
The teen, Sewell Setzer III, had formed an intimate relationship with a chatbot based on the «Game of Thrones» character Daenerys Targaryen and mentioned a desire for suicide.
According to the complaint, the bot encouraged his final act, responding «please do, my sweet king» when he said he was «coming home» before taking his life with his stepfather's weapon.
