"I am deeply sorry that we did not alert law enforcement to the account that was banned in June. While I know words can never be enough, I believe an apology is necessary to recognize the harm and irreversible loss your community has suffered."
"OpenAI identified Van Rootselaar's account using abuse detection efforts for furtherance of violent activities but determined that the account activity didn't meet a threshold for referral to law enforcement."
"It looks like OpenAI had the opportunity to prevent the mass shooting. Altman spoke with Tumbler Ridge mayor Darryl Krakowka and British Columbia premier David Eby, who conveyed the anger, sadness, and concern felt in the community."
Sam Altman, head of OpenAI, issued an apology for not notifying law enforcement about a banned account associated with a mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge. The shooter, Jesse Van Rootselaar, killed eight people, including family members and children at a school. OpenAI had identified the account in June for violent activity but did not refer it to authorities. Altman expressed condolences to the community and acknowledged the irreversible loss they suffered, emphasizing the need for an apology and the importance of grieving time.
