The decorated soldier behind the Tesla Cybertruck bombing outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas last week used the artificial intelligence platform ChatGPT to plan the New Year's Day attack, law enforcement said Tuesday.
U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sgt. Matthew Livelsberger looked into the amount of explosives he'd need, where to buy fireworks and how to buy a phone without providing identifying information, Kevin McMahill, sheriff for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, said during a press conference. McMahill called the use of the generative AI a "game changer."
"We knew that AI was going to change the game at some point or another in really all of our lives," McMahill said. "This is the first incident that I'm aware of on U.S. soil where ChatGPT is utilized to help an individual build a particular device."
