OpenAI announced on Monday, September 29, 2025, the launch of a new set of parental control tools for its popular chatbot ChatGPT, aiming to strengthen digital safety for teenagers and give parents more control options.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the company explained that the new update allows parents to link their accounts with their children’s, on both the web and mobile app versions. This enables families to customize safety settings based on their specific needs.
Among the new features, parents can:
Limit access to sensitive content,
Manage conversation history,
Prevent these conversations from being used to train the company’s AI models, enhancing privacy and security in a family environment.
This update is part of OpenAI’s ongoing efforts to develop safer and more responsible AI tools, striking a balance between technological innovation and protecting younger users.
