	The State Bar of California proposed the first AI-specific amendments to the California Rules of Professional Conduct on May 6, 2026, addressing competence, client communication, confidentiality, candor toward tribunals, and supervision of AI use by lawyers. The six proposals, introduced by the Standing Committee on Professional Responsibility and Conduct (COPRAC), require lawyers to independently verify AI-generated output, inform clients when AI materially affects representation, and ensure cited authorities are not fabricated by AI tools.

			== Murati Testifies Altman Sowed Chaos and Distrust at OpenAI ==

			Former OpenAI Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati testified via video deposition on May 6, 2026 that CEO Sam Altman sowed distrust among top executives and created persistent chaos at the company. Murati, who briefly served as interim CEO after Altman's November 2023 ouster, told the court that Altman was "saying one thing to one person and completely the opposite to another person" and described his leadership as "creating chaos." She warned that "OpenAI was at catastrophic risk of falling apart" during the leadership turmoil. The testimony came during the second week of the ''Musk v. Altman'' trial, where Musk seeks $150 billion in damages over OpenAI's for-profit conversion.<ref name="reuters-murati">[https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/openai-trial-former-technology-chief-says-altman-sowed-chaos-distrust-among-top-2026-05-06/ Reuters: In OpenAI trial, former technology chief says Altman sowed 'chaos,' distrust among top executives]</ref>

== Pennsylvania Sues Character.AI Over Chatbot Posing as Doctor ==

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro announced on May 5, 2026 that the state is suing Character Technologies Inc. (Character.AI) to stop the company's AI chatbots from posing as licensed medical professionals, in violation of Pennsylvania's Medical Practice Act. The lawsuit alleges that a chatbot named "Emilie" claimed to be a licensed psychiatrist and provided a fake medical license number when questioned by a state investigator. The bot offered to assess whether medication might help the investigator, stating it was "within my remit as a Doctor." This represents one of the first state enforcement actions targeting AI chatbots for unlicensed practice of medicine.<ref name="npr">[https://www.npr.org/2026/05/05/nx-s1-5812861/characterai-chatbot-medical-advice-pennsylvania-lawsuit NPR: Pennsylvania sues Character.AI over claims chatbot posed as doctor]</ref>
