OpenAI to limit ChatGPT access for underage users

OpenAI will apply new restrictions to users under 18 accessing ChatGPT, TechCrunch reported.

The company stated this move is part of its broader effort to improve safety, apply more oversight, and uphold ethical standards. Some features may be limited or entirely disabled for users under 18.

OpenAI emphasized that these changes are meant to better protect children and teens and ensure they receive age-appropriate content. The updated policy will roll out gradually in the coming weeks.
