A Florida mother has sued artificial intelligence chatbot startup Character.AI accusing it of causing her 14-year-old son's suicide in February, saying he became addicted to the company's service and deeply attached to a chatbot it created.

The boy, 14, spent months talking to an artificial character on Character.AI before becoming depressed. His mother blames the company, saying the tech shouldn’t be accessible to minors.
