OpenAI CEO Unveils Plans to Allow Erotica for Adults on ChatGPT
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced plans to allow sexual and erotic content on ChatGPT for verified adults, starting December 2025.
We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues.
The CEO stated that the current restrictions made the platform less useful for many users without mental health problems, but the company wanted to prioritize getting it right.
- The new plan aims to relax mental health-focused restrictions within the AI chatbot "in most cases".
- More robust and comprehensive age-gating methods will be implemented to protect minors.
