A former NFL linebacker is facing murder charges after prosecutors say he turned to artificial intelligence for guidance following the death of his ex-partner.
According to Fox News, Darron Lee, a former first-round draft pick of the New York Jets, is accused of killing Gabriella Carvalho Perpétuo inside a home in Ooltewah, Tennessee, last month.
During a preliminary hearing on Monday, prosecutors revealed that Lee allegedly consulted ChatGPT multiple times in the aftermath of the incident.
Lee, 31, is charged with first-degree murder and tampering with or fabricating evidence. A judge previously ordered that he remain behind bars without bond.
According to prosecutors, Lee sent messages to the AI chatbot describing the situation and asking for advice about what to do next.
Prosecutors read one of the prompts aloud during the hearing.
“Don’t know what to do right now,” Lee allegedly wrote. “Fiancée did her crazy thing again and now she’s messed up, I wake up and she has two swollen eyes (I didn’t do anything, self inflicted) she stabbed herself, slit her eye? Idk but she isn’t waking up or responding, what do I do?”
