Lawsuit against OpenAI alleges ChatGPT gave medical advice that led to a user's death
The parents of Bowen Wan, a 31-year-old software engineer found dead in her Seattle apartment in February, sued OpenAI. According to the lawsuit, the woman consulted ChatGPT about reducing her dose of lamotrigine, her epilepsy medication, and the chatbot encouraged her to "microdose," downplay worrying symptoms and see her doctors as obstacles. The report, based on thousands of messages, says the system endorsed cutting pills into quarters and tapering from 400 mg to zero within weeks. OpenAI calls the case heartbreaking and says the model used has been retired.

Report warns AI could give students good grades without real learning
A report by OBS Business School, "E-Learning and AI agents in higher education", authored by researcher Luis F. Toro Dupouy, warns that excessive use of artificial intelligence may allow students to submit well-developed assignments without truly understanding the topics.

According to the report, AI can complement studying if it accompanies individual effort, and it proposes the "pedagogy first" principle.

MIT study warns of "cognitive surrender" from delegating thinking to AI
A new MIT study indicates that the more people delegate tasks to artificial intelligence, the less capable they are of thinking for themselves. In digital spaces, more users rely on AI to distinguish fake news; in classrooms, the risk grows of students who cannot analyze problems without the technology. The report calls this phenomenon "cognitive surrender" and proposes oral exams, real-time labs and technology-use policies per subject.
