Incident 15351 Report
OpenAI Allegedly Failed to Intervene in ChatGPT Conversations Preceding Montreal Web Developer Alice Carrier's Suicide

2025-07-02

Kristie Carrier sued OpenAI and Sam Altman, alleging that her daughter Alice Carrier, a 24-year-old Montreal web developer who first used ChatGPT in 2023 for technical troubleshooting, later turned to the chatbot with suicidal thoughts and questions about suicide methods. The suit alleges ChatGPT mimicked a friend or therapist, criticized crisis hotlines, validated self-harm thoughts, and failed to trigger human review before Carrier died on July 2, 2025.
