A missing Auburn University student's final details before his sudden disappearance are now being revealed online.
This includes how he had a serious argument with his mother regarding ChatGPT before he went missing during a family trip that was in Japan last week.
26-year-old James Weston Higginbothan was last seen in the Kyoto area on May 29 after separating from his loved ones while they were visiting from Alabama. Nancy Higginbotham, her partner, and the kids were traveling together that week in celebration of her 18-year-old son's high school graduation.
While talking to NBC News from Japan, Nancy shared more about how Weston walked away from his parents after a dumb argument that had to do with using ChatGPT too much to assist in planning the trip. He opposed how reliant so many people have become on AI, the mother confirmed.
"We never try to use this, and I totally agree with him. It was just dumb, and a very dumb argument to have," she added. Nancy also mentioned how her son was so emotionally distressed following this incident, but does not think he would ever hurt himself or any strangers.
