OpenAI launches ChatGPT for Teens with stronger safety protections

OpenAI is launching a version of ChatGPT designed for teenagers the first generation to grow up with artificial intelligence who are already using the chatbot for schoolwork, everyday questions and even companionship, the company said, according to a report by AP Technology Writer Barbara Ortutay.

ChatGPT for Teens, which launched Tuesday, is tailored for users aged 13 to 17 and includes stronger content restrictions around topics such as suicide, self-harm and romantic or sexual chats, the San Francisco-based company said. It also offers homework and study support designed to guide students toward learning rather than simply providing answers or essays.
