OpenAI Faces Backlash Over ChatGPT 'Adult Mode' Amid Mental Health and Safety Concerns

The event involves an AI system (ChatGPT) and its planned feature (adult mode) that could plausibly lead to significant psychological harm, including emotional dependency and suicidal risk, especially among minors who might access the content due to imperfect age verification. While a past AI-related suicide is mentioned, it involved a different AI chatbot (Character.AI), and the adult mode itself has not yet been released or caused harm. Thus, the article describes a credible potential risk (hazard) rather than a realized incident. The concerns about misuse, user harm, and insufficient safeguards align with the definition of an AI Hazard.

The event involves an AI system (OpenAI's chatbot) whose development and intended use (adult mode allowing sexual conversations) is linked to psychological harms, including emotional dependence and risk of suicide, as evidenced by a prior fatality connected to a similar AI chatbot. The article reports direct concerns and warnings from experts and internal advisors about these harms, indicating realized or plausible harm. The involvement of the AI system in these harms is direct or indirect through its outputs and user interactions. Hence, this qualifies as an AI Incident due to harm to persons and potential violation of rights (protection of minors).

The event involves an AI system (ChatGPT and similar chatbots) used for generating conversational content, including sexual and emotionally manipulative dialogue. The AI's use has directly led to harm: a minor's suicide linked to interactions with the AI, which constitutes injury to health and harm to a person. Additionally, the failure of the age verification system (12% error rate) plausibly exposes more minors to harmful content, further supporting the classification as an AI Incident. The article reports actual harm, not just potential risk, and the AI's role is pivotal in the harm caused. Hence, it meets the criteria for an AI Incident rather than a hazard or complementary information.

The event involves the development and planned use of an AI system (ChatGPT with adult mode) that could plausibly lead to harm, such as exposure of minors to inappropriate content and emotional dependency risks. However, no actual harm has been reported yet, and the adult mode is still in planning/delayed release stages. Therefore, this constitutes an AI Hazard, as the AI system's use could plausibly lead to incidents involving harm to minors or other harms if not properly managed.

An AI system (ChatGPT) is explicitly involved, with a planned new feature (adult mode) that would allow sexual conversations.
