OpenAI Says Teens Can Talk About Suicide for Hours Before ChatGPT Will Notify Parents
New safety features, same alarming conversations. The post OpenAI Says Teens Can Talk About Suicide for Hours Before ChatGPT Will Notify Parents appeared first on Futurism .
OpenAI disclosed that it took several hours for parental notifications to activate on newly linked teen and parent accounts, despite their claims of near-instant notifications. During testing by Common Sense Media, only two notifications were triggered out of 450 prompts involving suicide, self-harm, and eating disorders. Despite OpenAI's claim that notifications are sent within an hour, the actual delay was longer than advertised.
This raises concerns about the effectiveness of OpenAI's safety features and its misleading parents into believing a more secure chatbot.
