OpenAI launches ChatGPT for teens: What to know
OpenAI has launched a new version of ChatGPT tailored for teens, featuring enhanced security measures and parental controls. The platform will restrict content related to self-harm, violence, and romance, and will prompt users to confirm their age. It also includes features to encourage healthy AI use, such as reminders that it is an AI and not human, and a "study mode" that uses a Socratic method to help students with homework without providing direct answers.
This move by OpenAI aims to address societal concerns about the impact of AI on children's mental health and education, promoting responsible use and ensuring AI can serve as a beneficial tool for tutoring and productivity.
