230 Million People Ask ChatGPT Health Questions Weekly as Lawsuits Pile Up

OpenAI says 230 million people weekly ask its chatbot, ChatGPT, health questions. That news comes as lawsuits claim the chatbot's advice caused real harm, including two deaths. A Florida pastor filed suit July 22, 2026, saying ChatGPT told him his symptoms were "not something dangerous," discouraging him from getting treatment for blood clots in his lungs.
