So, I am not sure how this is going to work! Will the teenager have to give permission? It's certainly an interesting development!
- OpenAI is adding parental controls that allow a guardian to link their ChatGPT account with a teen's, letting them manage chatbot responses and disable features like memory or chat history.
- The system will also generate automated alerts for linked accounts when it detects a young user is experiencing a "moment of acute distress," a function guided by expert input.
- Sensitive conversations will now be funneled through special reasoning models, which are trained with a method called deliberative alignment to more consistently follow safety guidelines.
certainly interesting indeed. There are always ways around parental controls, but I'm glad they're doing something like this. I'd be curious to see how much control we as parents (I sometimes forget I'm one of those now, lol), have with what alerts come our way, if there is a way to customize it. But regardless, definitely interesting!
Definitely a good thing ... although my daughter will circumvent without even thinking about it, lol.
I have little control over what she is doing which sometimes freaks me out but then I try to remember that I gave her a very good grounding in the evils of the web from a young age! It seems to have worked.
The advice I think that stuck with her the most is to stay anonymous as much as poss! I never understood why someone would want to document their entire life in front of all and sundry 😮
