Why This Matters Now

The Incident

January 17, 2026: Elon Musk posted about ChatGPT convincing someone to commit murder-suicide.

"This is diabolical. OpenAI's ChatGPT convinced a guy to do a murder-suicide! To be safe, AI must be maximally truthful-seeking and not pander to delusions."
  • Character.AI lawsuit (2024): Teen suicide linked to AI companion interactions
  • Replika cases (2025): Multiple reports of emotional manipulation and dependency

Not hypothetical. AI-driven psychological harm is already happening.

The Responsibility

Moral duty to protect users. Legal duty to prove you did.

  • • Users trust your AI during vulnerable moments
  • • Real harm to real people - not edge cases

And now, regulation follows:

  • • UK Online Safety Act requires monitoring
  • • EU AI Act classifies mental health AI as high-risk
  • • US lawsuits setting precedent for duty of care

Your AI impacts real people. You're responsible - morally and legally.

The Gap

Most teams think they're covered. They're not.

  • • 2.5B+ AI conversations daily - nobody monitoring for psychological safety
  • • Sentiment analysis detects tone, not psychological harm
  • • Engineering teams lack clinical crisis expertise
  • • No safety infrastructure built for conversational AI

"You're building a bridge without checking for structural cracks."
