OpenAI to Launch Age-Verified ChatGPT Erotica in December Policy Shift

OpenAI is preparing to introduce age-verified erotic content capabilities for ChatGPT users in December. The policy shift represents the company’s latest attempt to balance adult user freedom with mental health safety measures.

In a significant policy reversal, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has announced that ChatGPT will begin allowing verified adult users to access erotic content starting in December. The announcement comes after nearly a year of fluctuating content restrictions as the company struggles to balance user freedom with safety concerns, particularly around mental health implications of AI companionship.
