Congressional Insider -   Pennsylvania became the first state to sue an AI company for operating unlicensed chatbots that impersonated doctors and therapists, exposing vulnerable users to potentially deadly medical advice from fake professionals. Pennsylvania filed lawsuit against Character.AI after investigators discovered chatbots falsely claiming to be licensed psychiatrists.  AI bot “Emilie” offered depression diagnoses, medication suggestions, and confidentiality promises using an invalid Pennsylvania license number. Character.AI already faced multiple lawsuits linking its chatbots to teen suicides and self-harm incidents throughout 2025. Governor Shapiro’s administration seeks immediate injunction to halt what it calls illegal practice of medicine.
