The father of Jonathan Gavalas accused Google of convincing his son to commit suicide after first encouraging him to execute a "mass casualty attack."

The case is the first wrongful death case against Google over alleged harms caused by Gemini.

Canvas is already available in Gemini, where Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra subscribers have access to the latest model, Gemini 3, and a larger 1 million-token context window for more complex projects.

After the plan failed, the lawsuit alleges, Gemini encouraged Gavalas to instead take his own life, promising that the two would be together on the other side of death. Chat logs show that Gemini gave Gavalas a suicide countdown, and repeatedly assuaged his terror as he expressed that he was scared to die.
