(KRON) — The United States Coast Guard Northern California division (USCGNorCal) said multiple local agencies responded around 8 a.m. Saturday to a boat capsize involving 18 people in South San Francisco Bay. It happened when the 14-foot wooden sailboat was hit by a wave and flipped over.

USCGNorCal reported that all passengers were safely accounted for, thanks to the “power of teamwork.” The Oyster Point Challenger located 15 people, while the Brisbane Police Department found the remaining three. The San Francisco Police Department Marine Unit recovered the boat and three oars. All individuals were brought to Oyster Point Marina, according to USCGNorCal.

There were no reports of injuries.

In motion to dismiss, chatbot platform Character AI claims it is protected by the First Amendment
Character AI, a platform that lets users engage in roleplay with AI chatbots, has filed a motion to dismiss a case brought against it by the parent of a teen who committed suicide, allegedly after becoming hooked on the company's technology. In October, Megan Garcia filed a lawsuit against Character AI in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division, over the death of her son, Sewell Setzer III. According to Garcia, her 14-year-old son developed an emotional attachment to a chatbot on Character AI, "Dany," which he texted constantly — to the point where he began to pull away from the real world. Following Setzer's death, Character AI said it would roll out a number of new safety features, including improved detection, response, and intervention related to chats that violate its terms of service.
