Social Media Victims Law Center Empowering Parents to Protect Their Kids & Hold Social Media and AI Companies Accountable

When a new technology comes out, companies have a responsibility to think about user safety, not just profits.

But we believe that is not the case when it comes to OpenAI and ChatGPT.

With AI chatbots, we're seeing a pattern — public safety taking a back seat to corporate gain.

Social media platforms were built to maximize engagement.

For adults, that's an inconvenience.

For children and teens, the consequences have been significantly more serious.

Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and poor body image are showing up at scale in young people who grew up on these platforms.

These aren't accidental outcomes.

Internal research at some of the largest social media companies showed the mental health risks to younger users, but the platforms kept the same design anyway.

When you put that knowledge next to those outcomes, it stops looking like a tech problem and starts looking like a liability.

Lawsuits are now being filed against these companies on behalf of children and families affected.

This verdict wasn't just a win. It was a statement.

Recently, Attorney Matt Bergman and the team at SMVLC helped secure one of the largest legal victories against social media in the history.

Matt recounts a key detail of the case that helped secure the verdict.

The jury came back with malice, not just negligence. That's a big deal. It not only helped secure $6 million in damages, it also pushes the needle for tech companies to be held liable for the technology they create.

OpenAI was allegedly aware of the issues that GPT-4o posed, and released it anyway.

Founding attorney Matt Bergman sees this as one piece of a larger pattern: large tech companies consistently choose profit over user safety.

And to hold them accountable, strict legal repercussions are not only helpful... they're required.

If you or a loved one faced harm caused by AI, you may have legal options.
