AI Psychosis Leading to Violence

Multiple new documented cases and legal actions link generative AI/chatbot use to violence and self-harm, directly contradicting the falsification criteria (which required an absence of such cases). Reports include lawsuits against OpenAI over chatbot-linked violence, coverage of chatbots implicated in mass shootings, and academic/mental-health commentary treating AI-induced grievance and psychological harm as an emerging risk factor.

Predicted 30 August 2025
Validated 4 August 2026
Horizon short
What would prove this wrong

No further documented cases connecting generative AI use to violent acts emerge over an extended period, and mental health authorities do not identify AI psychosis as a recognized contributing factor in violence statistics.
