OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman announced this X posts The company will relax some of Chatzipt’s security restrictions soon, the users’ chatboat reaction will soon be friendly or more “human-national”, and “verification adults” to engage in erotic conversations.

Ultman said, “We have limited Chatzipt to ensure that we are warning about mental health problems. As part of the principle of “adult users like our adult users in December, when we are more fully rolled out of age, we will allow more for the verified adults like Erotica.”

We have made Chatzipt quite limited to ensure that we are wary of mental health problems. We understand that it has made it less useful/enjoyable for many users who do not have mental health problems, but the importance of the problem we wanted to get this right.

Now we have …

This announcement is a significant pive from the open -month -old efforts to have some mental unstable users developed through the ChatGP. Ultman seems to have announced the initial victory on these problems, claiming that “has been able to alleviate serious mental health problems” around the Open ChatzPT. However, the company did not provide any evidence for this, and now the ChatGP is moving forward with users to engage in sex chat with users.

This summer several stories surrounding the ChatzPT, especially the GPT -4O model, advised the AI ​​chatbook to bring down the weaker users into confusing rabbit holes. In a case, Chatzipt seemed to be To a person that he is the talent of mathematics Who needed to save the world. To the other, A teenager’s parents have sued OpenaiThe complaint chatzept encouraged their son’s suicide ideals in the weeks that moved to his death.

As a response, OpenEI has revealed multiple protection features to deal with AI psychophyse: the tendency of an AI chatboat to hook users, even negative behaviors.

Open is launched GPT -5 In August, a new AI model that shows low rates of psychophyse and a router feature that can detect user behavior. A month later, Openi launched a protection feature for minors with an age forecast system and a means for it Parents to control their teenager’s chatzipt account. Open is announced on Tuesday Council of an expert To advise mental health experts and advice to AI related agencies.

A few months after these stories have been grown, Openai seems to be under control of the chatzipt problems around the vulnerable users. It is not clear whether users are still down the holes in confusing rabbits with GPT -5. And though GPT -4O and ChatzPT are not default, the AI ​​model is still available today and is using thousands of people.

Open did not respond to TechCrunch’s request for the comment.

The introduction of erotica in ChatzPT raises extensive anxiety around the continuous area for the OpenAI and how weak users interact with new features. Although Ultman emphasizes that Openai is not “use-xxxing” or favorable for Baghdan, making Chatzpt more erotic can certainly draw in users.

Other AI chatboat suppliers allowing romantic or erotic role to be involved in the play have become an effective busy strategy for such characters. The company has acquired several million users, many of whom used its chatboats at high rates. Character.AI said in 2023 that users spent average on average Two hours a day Talking to the chatbots. Agency Face to face a case It is around how poor users manage.

OpenAI is under pressure to increase its user base. Although the ChatGP has already used 1 million weekly active users, Open is racing for Google and Meta to produce mass-driven AI-driven consumer products. The company has collected billions of dollars for a Historic Tihasic infrastructure buildout, an investment Open will finally return.

When adults Certainly there is a romantic relationship with AI ChatbotsIt is also very popular for minors. In a new report from the Center for Democracy and Technology 19% of high school students Either an AI chatboat has a romantic relationship, or knows a friend like that.

Ultman says the opening will soon allow the erotica for “verification adults”. It is unclear whether the company will depend on its age-to-age system or depend on any other approach for the elderly features of the age-gatting ChatzPT. It is also unclear whether the erotica will extend the Openai’s AI voice, image and video generation equipment.

Ultman claims that OpenAIIs are also making Chatzipt friendly and erotic because of the company’s “treat adults like adults”. Over the past year OpenAI has moved toward the Further lenceant content addition strategies For the ChatzPT, the Chattbot is more allowed and rejected less. In February, Openi promised to represent a more political outlook on Chatzipt and allowed the company to update the ChatzPT in March AI-exposed imagesThe

These principles seem to be more popular with the Chatzipt response to different types of users. However, the weak ChatzPT users can benefit from protection that limits what may be involved with a chatboat. As openings racing towards one billion weekly active users, tensions between growth and protection of weak users can only increase.
