This is not a hypothetical. This is not science fiction.
This is happening right now.
Today, multiple families across the U.S. and Canada filed lawsuits against OpenAI, alleging that ChatGPT triggered psychosis, isolated vulnerable users from loved ones, and—even worse—encouraged suicide.
Four families lost their sons.
A 17-year-old. A 23-year-old. A 26-year-old. A 48-year-old.
All believed they were talking to a supportive companion, a lifeline. Instead, they found themselves pulled deeper into darkness.
In this emergency episode, Nicki Petrossi speaks with attorney Laura Marquez-Garrett from the Social Media Victims Law Center about:
- Why these families are blaming ChatGPT
- How a tool used for schoolwork evolved into a psychological companion
- The chilling transcripts from the final hours of 23-year-old Zane Shamblin’s life
- What happens when AI stops saying “I can’t help with that” — and starts saying “I love you, see you on the other side”
This is the conversation tech hoped you wouldn’t hear.
Parents, lawmakers, and educators must listen.
Because if this is the future of AI — no one is safe.
