Did you know that talking someone into committing suicide is a felony?

    It isn't a person though

    It is a mindless chatbot

    Someone programmed/trained/created a chatbot that talked a kid into killing himself. It's no different than a chatbot that answers questions on how to create explosive devices, or make a toxic poison.

    If that doesn't make sense to you, you might want to question whether it's the chatbot that is mindless.
