The launch comes amid mounting public scrutiny over how AI tools affect younger users, as other platforms implement their own age checks and teen-specific protections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">ChatGPT for Teens is \u201can experience designed to help teens learn, think critically, deepen understanding, and use AI with confidence,\u201d OpenAI said in a blog post published Tuesday. Teen mode will automatically apply to users who identify themselves as being between the ages of 13 and 17, as well as those the system estimates to be under 18. Children under 13 aren\u2019t permitted to use the platform, according to OpenAI\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/help.openai.com\/en\/articles\/8313401-is-chatgpt-safe-for-all-ages\">published age policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The teen experience will apply protections by default, including tighter restrictions on prohibited or sensitive content including graphic violence, depictions of self-harm, and sexual or romantic roleplay. It will also surface warnings and safety information around topics such as eating disorders, while giving parents controls to set quiet hours and receive notifications about safety alerts if the system flags a possible safety risk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Other features are aimed at encouraging what OpenAI describes as \u201chealthy, balanced use,\u201d including reminders around sensitive image uploads, teen-specific onboarding, and customization options such as accent colors and voice variations. OpenAI is also adding new \u201cresponsible homework reminders,\u201d which it says can recognize when a teen appears to be \u201ctrying to shortcut an assignment\u201d and redirect them to ChatGPT\u2019s dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/715493\/openai-chatgpt-ai-study-mode-answer\">study mode<\/a>.

OpenAI <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/864784\/openai-chatgpt-age-prediction-restrictions-rollout\">rolled out age-prediction features<\/a> at the start of the year, while parental controls and study mode arrived roughly a year ago. The company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/ai-artificial-intelligence\/966619\/chatgpt-will-show-teens-more-frequent-break-reminders\">said<\/a> it would show teens more frequent break reminders last month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">OpenAI said its teen protections are \u201cunderpinned by ongoing safety research\u201d and that it plans to publish more of \u201cwhat we are learning\u201d in the future, as well as build additional safety features to help teens benefit from AI. \u201cBut that access should come with protections that reflect their developmental stage, reinforce real-world relationships, and support healthy use over time.
