AI companies move to protect teens

AI companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta are implementing safeguards to protect teens from harmful AI use, including parental controls and age verification. OpenAI allows teen access with break reminders and parental time limits, while Anthropic requires users to be over 18. Meta will notify parents if a child discusses self-harm with its chatbot. Challenges remain in ensuring teens comply with age verification and connect parent accounts.
