Altman apologizes after OpenAI failed to alert police before fatal Canada shooting

OpenAI said the company had identified an account using abuse detection efforts, but determined at the time it didn't meet threshold for legal referral

The head of OpenAI has written a letter apologizing that his company didn't alert law enforcement about the online behavior of a person who shot and killed eight people in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia.

In the letter posted Friday, Sam Altman expressed his deepest condolences to the entire community.
