CHATGPT SHOOTING AID?
The family of a man killed in last year’s mass shooting at Florida State University plans to take OpenAI and ChatGPT to court, alleging the chatbot helped the suspected gunman plan the attack. Attorneys for Robert Morales’ relatives say they learned the suspected shooter was in “constant communication” with ChatGPT beforehand and now “have reason to believe that ChatGPT may have advised the shooter how to commit these heinous crimes,” per WCTV. Morales, 57, a former high school football coach who managed FSU’s dining program, was one of two people fatally shot; six others were wounded. The suspect’s trial is scheduled for October.
The family of Robert Morales, one of two people killed in last year’s Florida State University mass shooting, is poised to sue OpenAI and ChatGPT, accusing the chatbot of helping the suspected gunman plan the attack after what attorneys say was “constant communication” beforehand. The claim is explosive: lawyers say they have reason to believe ChatGPT may have advised how to carry out the carnage, a charge that lands amid a widening wave of lawsuits tying AI chatbots to deadly violence. OpenAI says it identified an account believed to belong to the suspect and turned information over to authorities, while GOP Rep. Jimmy Patronis blasted Big Tech for profiting from “dangerous content” with “zero accountability.” The suspect’s trial is set for October.

Chester Burton "Chet" Atkins, Mister Guitar (1924)June 20, 2026
Atkins got his first guitar by making a trade with his brother, and it was arguably the best deal he ever made.

What did "Mr. Guitar," as he came to be known, trade to get that first guitar?
