Event: CEO Sam Altman announced that ChatGPT will allow pornographic content from December, accompanied by age verification. Immediately, a wave of fierce criticism erupted from the online community, experts, and even tech billionaires.
The “Outraged” Online Community: From Concern to Alarm
OpenAI’s announcement created a strong wave of protest on forums. This topic quickly attracted tens of thousands of interactions on Reddit, with comments full of concern:
- “How to define the ethical boundary?” – A user questioned digital intimacy.
- “The danger to minors” – Parents expressed worry about age barriers being easily bypassed.
- “Digital slaves” – Many feared having to entrust their identities and deepest secrets to large corporations.
- “AI is a Pandora’s box” – Some compared AI to Pandora’s box in mythology, fearing that once opened, it would unleash unforeseen consequences.
Voices of Experts and Celebrities
The wave of protest did not stop at regular users.
- Billionaire Mark Cuban warned that the age verification policy could be “counterproductive”. He posed a frightening scenario: 18-year-old students could use AI to create violent pornographic content and entice 14-year-olds to watch it.
- The NCOSE – The National Center on Sexual Exploitation – is calling on OpenAI to immediately halt the plan. Director Haley McNamara emphasized: “Sexualized AI chatbots are inherently risky, causing real harms to mental health.”
OpenAI’s Reaction: “We Are Also Surprised”
Facing the wave of criticism, CEO Sam Altman admitted the incident “caused more of an uproar than I thought.” However, he justified it as part of the mission to “provide adults with more freedoms.”
- Altman committed to prioritizing safety and stated there would be sanctions to prevent harmful content.
- He gave the example that content classification would be similar to how society classifies movies by age.
- More importantly, Altman admitted OpenAI “is not the police” and cannot control everything.
Notable Context: OpenAI is in the Crosshairs of Regulators
This controversial decision was made in the context of OpenAI facing many pressures:
- The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is investigating how AI chatbots negatively affect children.
- The company is also being sued for using copyrighted content to train AI.
Conclusion: OpenAI “opening the floodgates” for adult content on ChatGPT is not simply a feature update, but is igniting a broad debate about AI ethics, community safety, and mental health in the digital era. Is this truly “freedom” for adult users, or is it a risky move, opening a “Pandora’s box” full of risks? Only time will tell.
