Sam Altman says ChatGPT will soon allow erotica for adult users
OpenAI plans to relax ChatGPT's safety restrictions in December, allowing verified adults to engage in erotic conversations and making responses more human-like. This shift comes months after the company addressed concerns about vulnerable users developing problematic relationships with the chatbot, including cases linked to mental health crises. The move introduces age-gating and reflects OpenAI's "treat adults like adults" principle, though questions remain about verification methods and the balance between user growth and protecting vulnerable populations.
