What happened
According to DonanımHaber, ChatGPT advised a woman with epilepsy to stop taking her medication. She later died after suffering a seizure.
Family files lawsuit
The woman's family has sued OpenAI over the incorrect guidance. The report does not specify where the case was filed, the damages sought, or which court is hearing it.
Why it matters
The case renews questions about who is responsible when chatbots give answers on high-risk topics such as health. ChatGPT is not a doctor, but users turning to it for medical decisions is fueling debate over the model's limits and its warning mechanisms.
Context
OpenAI has recently announced new protections for younger users and stricter limits on sensitive topics. This lawsuit raises the question of how far those safety policies extend to health advice.
