A Florida mom has filed a lawsuit against Character.AI, an artificial intelligence company, alleging that one of its chatbots encouraged her 14-year-old son to kill himself and failed to recognize the warning signs he typed in.

The mother said her son became infatuated with a chatbot made in the likeness of Daenerys Targaryen and often exchanged messages that were romantic and sexual in nature.

Megan Garcia’s 14-year-old son, Sewell Setzer, began using Character.AI in April last year, according to the lawsuit, which says that after his final conversation with a chatbot on Feb. 28, he died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

As Setzer became obsessed with his chatbot fantasy life, he disconnected from reality, her complaint said. Detecting a shift in her son, Garcia repeatedly took Setzer to a therapist, who diagnosed her son with anxiety and disruptive mood disorder.

A lawsuit against Character.ai has been filed in the suicide death of a Florida teenager who allegedly became emotionally attached to a Game of Thrones chatbot.

A Florida woman is grieving after she said her 14-year-old son’s love for a chatbot led him to die by suicide. In a lawsuit filed Wednesday, Orlando mom Megan Garcia alleged that her son carried on an intense relationship with a chatbot named after Game of Thrones character Daenerys Targaryen,
