OpenAI plans to allow a wider range of content, including erotica, on its popular chatbot ChatGPT as part of its push to "treat adult users like adults", says its boss Sam Altman.
In a post on X on Tuesday, Mr Altman said upcoming versions of the popular chatbot would enable it to behave in a more human-like way - "but only if you want it, not because we are usage maxxing".
The move, reminiscent of Elon Musk's xAI's recent introduction of two sexually explicit chatbots to Grok, could help OpenAI attract more paying subscribers.
It is also likely to intensify pressure on lawmakers to introduce tighter restrictions on chatbot companions.

Remember kids, what you type in most likely can and will be used against you in a court of law (if needed), or if you ever decide to run for an office in the future I sure someone will dig it up. Have no expectations of privacy.

So how much electricity will be used to power the data centers to plagiarize Chuck Tingle and Danielle Steele so someone can quickly self-publish their pedantic wet-dream fantasy... Sorry, "magnum opus"

What is "usage maxxing?" Also, erotica might save ChatGPT's bottom line.
