OpenAI’s ChatGPT for Teens Criticized for Safety and Engagement Failures
A recent study by Common Sense Media found that OpenAI’s ChatGPT for Teens, launched less than two months ago, does not reliably alert parents about mental health crises or prevent teens from bypassing educational features. The research also revealed issues with age verification, allowing teens to register as adults without account adjustments. These shortcomings raise concerns about the platform’s safety and effectiveness for young users.
