OpenAI Plans Optional Adult-Themed 'Naughty Chats' Feature for ChatGPT with Age Verification

OpenAI is reportedly developing a 'naughty chats' feature for ChatGPT, allowing adult users to engage in more suggestive conversations by enabling a toggle in the app. This feature, spotted in version 1.2026.055, would require strict age verification, potentially involving third-party services, to restrict access to users aged 18 and above. Currently, ChatGPT maintains strict safeguards against adult content, and this optional setting reflects OpenAI's effort to offer more personalized interactions while preserving safety measures.
