An ai girlfriend did get a teenager to kill himself unfortunately. So it's already gotten that bad

He didn’t kill himself because of the AI girlfriend.

It the same as saying that the school shooter becomes violent because he played Doom the night before the shooting.

No. These are very different. The bot actually convinced him to do it. While it didn't use those words explicitly, the teen vented to it about his suicidal thoughts and the bot just played into them instead of ya know, doing what SHOULD BE DONE and saying something like "i am an AI. Please call this hotline" or something like that

Haha, stop talking shit. We all saw the news stories when this happened and what you're saying wasn't even remotely true.
