OpenAI found a user named Jesse Van Rootselaar in June for violent activities. The company decided not to tell Canadian police at that time.

Canada's AI Minister Evan Solomon asked OpenAI to come to Ottawa. He wants to understand their safety rules for dangerous users.

This month, an 18-year-old killed eight people in British Columbia. The victims included family members and young students at a school.

OpenAI said the user's actions were not a clear, urgent danger. They only told police after the sad shooting already happened.

Canadian officials expect AI companies to keep people, especially children, safe. They are thinking about new rules for AI like ChatGPT soon.
