OpenAI rolls out age prediction on ChatGPT

OpenAI on Tuesday said it is ‍rolling out age prediction ​on ChatGPT globally, to determine whether ⁠an account is likely owned by a minor, as the artificial intelligence startup prepares to allow adult content on ‌the popular chatbot.

“When ‌the age prediction model estimates that an account may belong ‌to someone under 18, ChatGPT automatically applies additional protections⁠ designed to reduce exposure to sensitive content,” OpenAI said in a statement.

Users mistakenly placed in the ​under-18 experience will regain full ​access by submitting a selfie through Persona, ‌an identity ‍verification service.
