Today's children are experiencing something no other generation has faced - growing up surrounded by a powerful technology: artificial intelligence (AI).

OpenAI's decision followed health concerns and a lawsuit by parents whose teen allegedly committed suicide after consulting ChatGPT

American artificial intelligence firm OpenAI has said it would add parental controls to its chatbot ChatGPT, a week after an American couple said the system encouraged their teenage son to kill himself.

Parents will also receive notifications from ChatGPT “when the system detects their teen is in a moment of acute distress,” OpenAI says.

Sept. 2 (UPI) -- OpenAI announced Tuesday it will give parents more ways to monitor their teenage children's use of ChatGPT, following reports that a 16-year-old used the chat bot to end his own life.
