Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Heartbroken that, per his social media accounts, Drew Struzan has left us. His poster and album art was quite simply shorthand for imagination for countless young people.

E.T. Adventure poster, 1990. I still have one of these hanging in my childhood bedroom.

Star Wars Special edition triptych, 1997. I remember seeing all of these in the paper as each film was re-released and just felt a burst of energy those mornings.

Wir wachen zu früh auf, es ist regelmäßig noch dunkel. Aber am Wochenende ist das ein Traum.

"Eines Morgens trat ich in einen Kreuzberger Zeitungskiosk und die Zeitungen waren weg. Nur noch Bier.
"Wo sind denn die Zeitungen?“, fragte ich.
Die Späti-Frau schaute mich an, als sei ich gerade mit einer Zeitmaschine in der Gegenwart gelandet."

Es gibt ein Zeitfenster von knapp zwei Wochen, wo vor dem Schlafzimmerfenster wirklich Indian Summer ist.
