ChatGPT Launches Age Prediction for Teen Safety: How It Works
- •OpenAI introduces an age prediction system on ChatGPT to enhance safety for teen users.
- •The system estimates user age using behavioral and account-level signals like account activity and usage patterns.
- •If a user is identified as under 18, additional safety settings are applied to provide an age-appropriate experience.
- •Users mistakenly identified as under 18 can verify their age using a selfie.
- •Content involving graphic violence, harmful challenges, sexual/romantic role-playing, extreme beauty standards, unhealthy diets, and body shaming will be restricted for users under 18.
Why It Matters: ChatGPT implements an age prediction system to protect teen users by restricting access to sensitive content.
