OpenAI peels back ChatGPT’s safeguards around image creation


OpenAI updated ChatGPT's content moderation policies to allow AI images depicting public figures, hateful symbols, and racial features.

However, one of the most notable changes OpenAI made this week involves its content moderation policies, which now allow ChatGPT to, upon request, generate images depicting public figures, hateful symbols, and racial features. OpenAI announced in February that it’s starting to change how it trains AI models, with the ultimate goal of letting ChatGPT handle more requests, offer diverse perspectives, and reduce topics the chatbot refuses to work with. In a white paper released Tuesday, OpenAI also said it will allow ChatGPT users to “generate hateful symbols,” such as swastikas, in educational or neutral contexts, as long as they don’t “clearly praise or endorse extremist agendas.”
