A 14 year old boy took his own life after falling in love with ‘Game of Thrones’ AI chatbot
14-year old boy Sewell Setzer III reportedly ended his life after becoming obsessed with a chatbot on Character AI.
Character AI just released a statement on social media while the mother of Sewell is expected to file a lawsuit this week.
“Sewell, like many children his age, did not have the maturity or mental capacity to understand that the bot, in the form of Daenerys, was not real. She told him that she loved him, and engaged in sexual acts with him over weeks, possibly months,” the papers allege.
These were the final messages before he used his father’s handgun to take his own life.
