The perpetrator of the Cybertruck explosion had taken help from ChatGPT

Last week, the explosion of a Tesla Cybertruck full of fireworks in Las Vegas in front of the Donald Trump International Hotel, the President of the United States, made news. Now the police and the FBI released new information about this incident; It seems that ChatGPT is also involved in this incident.

According to the Reuters report, the driver of the car was killed in the accident last week, and now the authorities say that he actually committed suicide with this explosion. According to them, the suspect most likely suffered from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). It is strange that he had taken help from ChatGPT for this explosion. According to authorities, the suspect used ChatGPT to check the amount of explosives to start the car explosion.

Using ChatGPT to Blast Cybertrucks

Police have identified the body of the 37-year-old driver of the Cybertruck as Matthew Livelsberger, US Army personnel. It seems that this act was done alone and he had no accomplice. The FBI says it appears to be a suicide. According to the FBI, the suspect had no animosity toward Donald Trump and may have suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department also announced that the Cybertruck explosion was the first incident on US soil where ChatGPT was used to make an explosive device. Previously, critics of artificial intelligence had warned that this technology could be used for dangerous purposes, and now the Las Vegas explosion could fuel these criticisms.

Sheriff Kevin McMahill of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said at a press conference:

“We now have clear evidence in this case that the suspect used ChatGPT AI to help plan his attack.”

However, OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, says the company is “committed to the responsible use of artificial intelligence tools, and its models are designed to refuse harmful instructions.” “In this case, ChatGPT responded with information that was already publicly available on the Internet and provided warnings about harmful or illegal activity,” the company said in a statement.
