Jonathan Rinderknecht has been arrested on suspicion of starting the Pacific Palisades fire in January, which killed 12 people and destroyed over 6,000 homes. Authorities discovered evidence on his phone, including a ChatGPT query where he asked the AI to create a "dystopian painting" depicting a class war during a fire, as well as questions about legal culpability for starting a fire with cigarettes. The fire also damaged the grounds of the Getty Villa, forcing a four-month closure.
