OpenAI to Allow Mature Content on ChatGPT

OpenAI will permit mature content for verified adult users on ChatGPT starting in December, according to CEO Sam Altman.

“As we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our ‘treat adult users like adults’ principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults,”

Altman stated that ChatGPT was initially made restrictive to address mental health concerns, but this limited its usefulness for many users without such issues.
