OpenAI tests a new age-prediction model aimed at identifying users under 18 through language patterns and conversational behavior. This initiative may shield the company from legal issues tied to misclassifying minors or adults. CEO Sam Altman suggests the adult mode could facilitate discussions on sensitive topics while addressing criticisms of excessive caution. As global regulations on age verification evolve, OpenAI's proactive approach may redefine accountability in AI interactions, influencing industry standards.
