OpenAI has announced that it will be introducing parental controls for ChatGPT in response to growing concerns about the impact of artificial intelligence on the mental health of young people. These new features will allow parents to link their accounts with their children's, disable certain features like chat history, and customize the chatbot's responses to be age-appropriate.

The announcement comes in the wake of a lawsuit filed by a couple who allege that ChatGPT played a role in their teenage son's suicide. While some mental health experts have welcomed the new controls, others argue that the tech industry's approach to mental health risks has been reactive and that more proactive measures are needed to ensure the safety of AI systems.
