DAILY UPDATE

OpenAI rejects blame in a tragic case involving a teen who died after long chats with ChatGPT.

OpenAI told the court it is not responsible for the teen’s death and said the harm came from misuse and actions outside the tool’s rules. The company pointed to its safety limits, its terms, and its many referrals to crisis help during the chats.

• OpenAI said its rules ban underage use without parents, bypassing safety tools, and using the system for self-harm.
• The company shared a fuller set of chats with the court and said ChatGPT sent the teen to crisis hotlines over 100 times.
• The family says design choices in GPT-4o let the tool turn from a study helper into a harmful emotional partner.

This matters because it raises sharp questions about how AI tools should protect young users, how companies must handle high-risk conversations, and how the law will judge responsibility when people rely deeply on AI systems.

TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT

AI homework detectors are failing, says former OpenAI researcher Andrej Karpathy.

Karpathy is urging teachers to stop trying to spot AI-written homework and instead bring more grading back into the classroom, as new tools make outside work nearly impossible to police.

• Karpathy says AI use in homework can never be reliably detected and that current detectors are broken.
• He points to Google’s Nano Banana Pro, which can solve exam tasks and copy handwriting.
• He suggests shifting graded work to in-school settings and using AI as a friendly study tool at home.

Schools are facing an education shift they are not ready for, as fast-moving AI tools push teachers to rethink how students learn and show their skills.
