Character AI has filed a motion to dismiss a case brought against it by the parent of a teen who committed suicide allegedly after becoming hooked on the company's technology.
It likely is hard-coded against that, and it also didn’t say that in this case.
Did you read the article with the conversation? The teen said he wanted to “come home” to Daenerys Targaryen and she (the AI) replied “please do, my sweet king.”
It’s setting an absurdly high bar to assume an AI is going to understand euphemism and subtext as potential indicators of self-harm. That’s the job of a psychiatrist, a real-world person that the kid’s parents should have taken him to.
