OpenAI is tightening restrictions on weapons-related information provided to teenagers on ChatGPT, even when queries appear harmless. The safety update aims to prevent real-world violence amid growing scrutiny over AI chatbot risks for young users. For all users, ChatGPT will automatically end chats involving violent fixations and may temporarily pause accounts after multiple violations. The company also strengthened its age prediction system to accurately route users under 18 into the teen experience and notify parents of paused accounts. OpenAI plans to roll out these safeguards over the coming weeks.
