Sam Altman says OpenAI isnt moral police of the world after erotica ChatGPT post blows up
Summary
OpenAI is loosening some ChatGPT content restrictions, including allowing erotica for verified adults, while keeping limits on harmful content. Sam Altman defended the change by saying OpenAI is not trying to act as the world’s moral police. The move has drawn backlash because OpenAI is also under scrutiny from regulators, advocacy groups, and a wrongful death lawsuit tied to chatbot safety concerns. OpenAI is responding with more parental controls, age prediction settings, and an expert council focused on mental health and motivation impacts. The company is trying to balance growth, user freedom, and safety as pressure around chatbot harms increases.
