Age Detection

OpenAI is launching a tailored ChatGPT experience for users under 18, incorporating robust parental controls and age-detection technology to safeguard younger users. This initiative aims to address concerns about child safety, content filtering, and potential data privacy issues amid increasing regulatory scrutiny from the FTC. Features include content filtering, parental account linking, “blackout hours,” disabled features, and customized response styles. OpenAI prioritizes safety for teens and aims to balance ethical implications amid a lawsuit and potential mental well-being risks.
