OpenAI indefinitely shelves ChatGPT adult mode

OpenAI has halted development of an adult mode for ChatGPT and put the plan on hold indefinitely, TechCrunch reported on March 26, citing the Financial Times. The issue drew controversy after CEO Sam Altman mentioned the feature in October last year, prompting internal opposition and outside criticism. The Wall Street Journal reported warnings at an advisory board meeting that it could become a “sexy suicide coach.” OpenAI said it had no further comment.
