Overview
- OpenAI is testing an AI age‑prediction model in select countries to distinguish teens from adults.
- If age cannot be confidently verified, the service will default users to the under‑18 experience.
- In some cases or jurisdictions, the company says it may request government ID to confirm adulthood.
- The planned mode would allow content previously blocked for all users, including erotica, for verified adults.
- Current safeguards across text, image, video, and code will remain until verification proves reliable, reflecting lessons from error‑prone age checks at other firms.
