  "account": "British Columbia Premier David Eby has accused OpenAI of walking away from mediation, leading to new lawsuits from witnesses of the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting. Eby called the inaction \"inexcusable and disgraceful\" and said the U.S. artificial intelligence firm's negligence in not reporting troubling online behavior of the shooter contributed to a disaster. The plaintiffs in 30 new lawsuits, including victims and witnesses, have the provincial government's support and the province intends to join the litigation.",
