Prison sentence after raid: Unmasked US bank robber used ChatGPT in crime planning
Chatbots like ChatGPT are now used so widely that a bank robber in the USA also used it to plan his attack. However, the use of AI was not really helpful for him.
A 23-year-old man has been sentenced to over 10 years in prison for robbing a bank in Omaha. He used ChatGPT to plan the heist, asking the chatbot questions such as how quickly the police would arrive and how to repair his gun. The bank's security cameras captured his face and footage of him threatening employees with a gun and stealing approximately $9,175. He was later caught on camera spending the stolen cash and was arrested after fleeing from police near his home.
