OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Apologizes for Failing to Report School Shooter's Banned Account to Police

Gate News message, April 25 — OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman apologized to the Tamborine community in Canada for the company’s failure to notify police about a banned account linked to Jesse Van Rootselaar, who killed eight people at a school in February before taking his own life. OpenAI had previously stated that it banned Van Rootselaar’s account last year due to policy violations, but the incident did not meet the company’s internal threshold for reporting to law enforcement.

Altman said he has spoken with the mayor of Tamborine and the premier of British Columbia regarding the tragedy, describing the community’s suffering as “unimaginable.”
