Overview
- David Baszucki rejected the idea that Roblox has a predator problem and described the issue as an opportunity to build safer communication for young users.
- He promoted a new AI-driven face-scanning age-estimation feature as a core addition to the platform’s moderation tools.
- The conversation with Hard Fork hosts turned combative, with Baszucki interrupting, challenging their research, and offering sarcastic “high-five” interjections.
- Coverage noted the remarks came as Louisiana, Kentucky, and Texas pursue lawsuits alleging Roblox failed to protect children, with Florida conducting a criminal investigation.
- Baszucki said he is open to prediction‑market‑style experiences on Roblox if structured legally without Robux or prizes, framing the idea as educational.
