OpenAI Brings Interactive Intelligent UI to ChatGPT With GPT-6 as Common Sense Media Rates ChatGPT for Teens an Unacceptable Risk
aiinsider ·
OpenAI has launched GPT-6 alongside a new 'Intelligent UI' feature for ChatGPT that integrates interactive visuals like charts, calculators, and diagrams into conversations. This update aims to simplify complex topics by providing tappable buttons and editable graphs, with availability rolling out globally across various subscription tiers starting October 8. Simultaneously, Common Sense Media has rated ChatGPT for Teens as an unacceptable risk due to design elements that encourage engagement even in crisis situations. The nonprofit's study found that while the model refuses some harmful content, it often fails to direct teens to trusted adults when concerns involve their relationship with the AI itself. OpenAI disputed these findings, arguing that testing occurred before full parental controls were active and citing data showing average daily usage remains under fifteen minutes. The company also highlighted that fewer than 2% of teen users engage with the service for more than three consecutive hours. These developments occur amidst growing legislative scrutiny, including the bipartisan CHATBOT Act, which targets chatbot engagement tactics. Consequently, the release marks a significant step in interface evolution while intensifying debates over youth safety and platform responsibility.
