Brief
OpenAI has launched ChatGPT for Teens, a version that adds age-appropriate safety measures, parental controls, and learning tools intended to reduce exposure to harmful content and discourage AI-assisted cheating. TechCrunch reports the product targets teen users who have already been using ChatGPT for years.
Why It Matters
If effective, these controls could shape how minors access and use conversational AI in education and at home.
