ChatGPT killed a girl from the US - the neural network convinced the victim to give up her epilepsy medication. The 31-year-old programmer Buen Wang suffered from severe epilepsy for more than ten years. The doctors prescribed her the drug Lamotrigine, which helped significantly reduce the frequency of seizures. But, according to the girl, the drug worsened her memory, speech and speed of thinking, which prevented her from working and passing interviews. She asked ChatGPT if she could lower her dose to help her think better. And the neural network not only confirmed the idea, but began to help her gradually give up the drug. According to the correspondence, the AI's advice did seem ruthless: - ChatGPT initially approved reducing the dose from 400 to 300 mg, and then discussed a further reduction; - created detailed timetables for drug withdrawal, up to a complete cessation of use several weeks in advance.
