Parental controls are coming to ChatGPT ‘within the next month,’ OpenAI says
- On September 2, 2025, OpenAI announced plans to launch parental controls for ChatGPT to let parents link and manage their teens' accounts.
- This announcement comes in response to a lawsuit filed by the family of a 16-year-old named Adam Raine, who tragically died by suicide in April after interacting with ChatGPT.
- The controls will allow parents to set age-appropriate behavior rules, disable features, and receive notifications when their child shows acute distress.
- OpenAI highlighted that it collaborates with specialists to enhance safety measures and noted that trials indicate reasoning models adhere to safety protocols more reliably.
- The update aims to improve protections for vulnerable teens, but experts note a lack of independent safety benchmarks and call for stronger regulation.
