According to Bloomberg, OpenAI has added a parental control feature to the ChatGPT service. Now parents can restrict some functions for children and receive notifications about signs of stress.
The feature is activated through a special invitation sent to the child's email. It allows restricting voice mode, image creation, and access to previous conversations.
Notifications are sent via email, SMS, or the app, but children's messages are not shared with parents.
This decision was made after the family of a teenager who took his own life in April of this year filed a lawsuit. The family emphasized that ChatGPT did not activate the “emergency help protocol” despite the teen's messages.
OpenAI is also developing a system to determine users’ ages, which will allow proper feature restrictions in the future, writes Kursiv Media.
