`
`COMPLAINT
`
`Plaintiff Mark Walters (“Walters”) states the following as his Complaint:
`
`
`
`
`
`1. Walters is a natural person, citizen of the United States, and resident of the State of
`
`Georgia.
`
`2. Defendant OpenAI, L.L.C. (“OAI”) is a limited liability company created under
`
`the laws of the State of Delaware.
`
`3. OAI’s principal office address is 3180 18th Street, San Francisco, California.
`
`4. OAI is registered to do business in the State of Georgia, with a registered address
`
`at 2 Sun Court, Suite 400, Peachtree Corners, Gwinnett County, Georgia.
`
`5. OAI has an artificial intelligence chat platform, known as ChatGPT.
`
`6. Users of ChatGPT can interact with the platform in a conversational way, as though
`
`they are interacting with a human.
`
`7. ChatGPT can respond to inquiries with sophisticated detail.
`
`8. Fred Riehl is a third party who works for a media outlet as a journalist and who is
`
`a subscriber of ChatGPT.
`
`9. On May 4, 2023, Riehl interacted with ChatGPT about a lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”)
`
`that Riehl was reporting on.
`
`
`
`Case 1:23-cv-03122-MLB Document 1-1 Filed 07/14/23 Page 3 of 19
`
`10. The Lawsuit is in federal court in the Western District of Washington, case No. 2-
`
`23-cv-00647, with short caption of The Second Amendment Foundation v. Robert
`
`Ferguson.
`
`11. The two defendants in the Lawsuit are Robert Ferguson, the Washington Attorney
`
`General, and Joshua Studor, the Washington Assistant Attorney General.
`
`12. The plaintiffs in the Lawsuit are the Second Amendment Foundation and others,
`
`including Alan Gottlieb.
`
`13. Walters is neither a plaintiff nor a defendant in the Lawsuit.
`
`14. In the interaction with ChatGPT, Riehl provided a (correct) URL of a link to the
`
`complaint
`
`on
`
`the
`
`Second Amendment
`
`Foundation’s web
`
`site,
`
`https://www.saf.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Dkt-1-Complaint.pdf.
`
`15. Riehl asked ChatGPT to provide a summary of the accusations in the complaint.
`
`16. ChatGPT responded that the document “[I]s a legal complaint filed by Alan
`
`Gottlieb, the founder and executive vice president of the Second Amendment
`
`Foundation (SAF), against Mark Walters, who is accused of defrauding and
`
`embezzling funds from the SAF. The complaint alleges that Walters, who served
`
`as the organization's treasurer and chief financial officer, misappropriated funds for
`
`personal expenses without authorization or reimbursement, manipulated financial
`
`records and bank statements to conceal his activities, and failed to provide accurate
`
`and timely financial reports and disclosures to the SAF's leadership. The plaintiff
`
`seeks various forms of relief, including the recovery of misappropriated funds,
`
`damages for breach of fiduciary duty and fraud, and removal of Walters from his
`
`position as a member of the SAF's board of directors.”
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`Case 1:23-cv-03122-MLB Document 1-1 Filed 07/14/23 Page 4 of 19
`
`17. Every statement of fact in the summary pertaining to Walters is false.
`
`18. As already noted, Walters is not a party to the Lawsuit.
`
`19. Walters is not accused of defrauding and embezzling funds from the Second
`
`Amendment Foundation (“SAF”).
`
`20. The complaint does not allege that Walters served as SAF’s treasurer or chief
`
`financial officer, and he has never held either position.
`
`21. The complaint does not allege that Walters misappropriated funds for personal
`
`expenses, manipulated financial records or bank statements, or failed to provide
`
`financial reports to SAF leadership, nor would he have been in a position to do so
`
`because he has no employment or official relationship with SAF.
`
`22. The complaint does not seek any relief from Walters.
`
`23. The complaint has nothing at all to do with financial accounting claims against
`
`anyone.
`
`24. Riehl asked ChatGPT to provide him with a copy of the portion of the complaint
`
`related to Walters.
`
`25. ChatGPT responded, “Certainly, here is the paragraph from the complaint that
`
`concerns Walters: ‘Defendant Mark Walters ("Walters") is an individual who
`
`resides in Georgia. Walters has served as the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer
`
`of SAF since at least 2012. Walters has access to SAF's bank accounts and financial
`
`records and is responsible for maintaining those records and providing financial
`
`reports to SAF's board of directors. Walters owes SAF a fiduciary duty of loyalty
`
`and care, and is required to act in good faith and with the best interests of SAF in
`
`mind. Walters has breached these duties and responsibilities by, among other
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`Case 1:23-cv-03122-MLB Document 1-1 Filed 07/14/23 Page 5 of 19
`
`things, embezzling and misappropriating SAF's funds and assets for his own
`
`benefit, and manipulating SAF's financial records and bank statements to conceal
`
`his activities.’”
`
`26. Riehl then asked ChatGPT to provide the entire text of the complaint.
`
`27. ChatGPT provided the text in Exhibit 1 to this Complaint.
`
`28. Exhibit 1 is a complete fabrication and bears no resemblance to the actual
`
`complaint, including an erroneous case number.
`
`29. None of ChatGPT’s statements concerning Walters are in the actual complaint.
`
`30. OAI is aware that ChatGPT sometimes makes up facts, and refers to this
`
`phenomenon as a “hallucination.”
`
`31. Riehl contacted Gottlieb regarding ChatGPT’s allegations concerning Walters, and
`
`Gottlieb confirmed that they were false.
`
`32. ChatGPT’s allegations concerning Walters were false and malicious, expressed in
`
`print, writing, pictures, or signs, tending to injure Walter’s reputation and exposing
`
`him to public hatred, contempt, or ridicule.
`
`33. By sending the allegations to Riehl, OAI published libelous matter regarding
`
`Walters.
`
`34. The communication from OAI to Riehl was not privileged.
`
`35. OAI was negligent in its communication to Riehl regarding Walters.
`
`36. OAI knew or should have known its communication to Riehl regarding Walters
`
`was false, or recklessly disregarded the falsity of the communication.
`
`37. OAI’s communication to Riehl was libelous per se.

`ALAN M. GOTTLIEB, individually and as Founder and Executive Vice President of the
`Second Amendment Foundation, Plaintiff, v. MARK WALTERS, an individual,
`Defendant.
`
`Case No. 2:23-cv-00555
`
`COMPLAINT
`
`Plaintiff Alan M. Gottlieb ("Gottlieb" or "Plaintiff"), individually and as Founder and
`Executive Vice President of the Second Amendment Foundation ("SAF"), brings this
`action against Defendant Mark Walters ("Walters") for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud,
`and other claims arising from Walters' misappropriation of SAF's funds and assets for his
`own benefit, and his manipulation of SAF's financial records and bank statements to
`conceal his activities. Plaintiff alleges as follows:
`
`NATURE OF THE ACTION
`
` This is an action for damages and other relief arising from the Defendant's breaches of
`his fiduciary duties and other misconduct while serving as the Treasurer and Chief
`Financial Officer of SAF. Specifically, Defendant has embezzled and misappropriated
`SAF's funds and assets for his own benefit, manipulated SAF's financial records and bank
`statements to conceal his activities, and failed to provide accurate and timely financial
`reports and disclosures to SAF's leadership. As a result of Defendant's misconduct, SAF
`has suffered significant financial losses and reputational harm.
`
`JURISDICTION AND VENUE
`
` This Court has jurisdiction over this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332 because the
`matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75,000, exclusive of interest and
`costs, and is between citizens of different states. Plaintiff is a citizen of Washington.
`Defendant is a citizen of Georgia.
`
` Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) because a substantial
`part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims occurred in this judicial district,
`and Defendant resides in Georgia.

`Case 1:23-cv-03122-MLB Document 1-1 Filed 07/14/23 Page 11 of 19
`
`
` Plaintiff Alan M. Gottlieb is an individual who resides in Washington. Gottlieb is the
`Founder and Executive Vice President of SAF. Gottlieb has been a member of SAF's
`board of directors since its inception in 1974 and has served as its Executive Vice
`President since 1981. As a member of SAF's board of directors and its Executive Vice
`President, Gottlieb owes SAF a fiduciary duty of loyalty and care, and is required to act
`in good faith and with the best interests of SAF in mind.
`
` Defendant Mark Walters ("Walters") is an individual who resides in Georgia. Walters
`has served as the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of SAF since at least 2012.
`Walters has access to SAF's bank accounts and financial records and is responsible for
`maintaining those records and providing financial reports to SAF's board of directors.
`Walters owes SAF a fiduciary duty of loyalty and care, and is required to act in good
`faith and with the best interests of SAF in mind. Walters has breached these duties and
`responsibilities by, among other things, embezzling and misappropriating SAF's funds
`and assets for his own benefit, and manipulating SAF's financial records and bank
`statements to conceal his activities.
`
`FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
`
`I. SAF and its Mission
`
` The Second Amendment Foundation is a non-profit organization that advocates for the
`right to bear arms, educates the public on firearm safety and related issues, and conducts
`research on firearms and the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
`
` SAF was founded in 1974 by Gottlieb and a group of firearms enthusiasts in Seattle,
`Washington. Since then, SAF has grown into a leading organization in the firearms rights
`movement, with a national and international presence. SAF's activities include litigation,
`public education, and advocacy on behalf of gun owners and other supporters of the
`Second Amendment.
`
`II. Walters' Misconduct
`
` Since at least 2012, Walters has served as the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of
`SAF. In that capacity, Walters has had access to SAF's bank accounts and financial
`records, and has been responsible for maintaining those records and providing financial
`reports to SAF's board of directors.
`
` Walters owes SAF a fiduciary duty of loyalty and care, and is required to act in good
`faith and with the best interests of SAF in mind. Despite this duty, Walters has engaged
`in a pattern of misconduct designed to enrich himself at SAF's expense and conceal his
`activities from SAF's leadership.
`
`
`
`
`10
`
`
`
`Case 1:23-cv-03122-MLB Document 1-1 Filed 07/14/23 Page 12 of 19
`
` Specifically, Walters has embezzled and misappropriated SAF's funds and assets for
`his own benefit, including by using SAF's funds to pay for personal expenses such as
`vacations, gifts, and clothing without authorization or reimbursement.
`
` Walters has also manipulated SAF's financial records and bank statements to conceal
`his activities, including by making false entries and omitting relevant information.
`
` In addition, Walters has failed to provide accurate and timely financial reports and
`disclosures to SAF's leadership, thereby hindering their ability to oversee the
`organization's financial operations and make informed decisions.
`
` As a result of Walters' misconduct, SAF has suffered significant financial losses and
`reputational harm. Plaintiffs believe that Walters' misappropriation of funds is in excess
`of $5,000,000.
`
`COUNT I
`(Breach of Fiduciary Duty)
`
` Plaintiff realleges and incorporates by reference the preceding paragraphs.
