On Monday, OpenAI announced a partnership with the nonprofit Common Sense Media to create AI guidelines and educational materials targeted at parents, educators, and teens. It includes the curation of family-friendly GPTs in OpenAI’s GPT store. The collaboration aims to address concerns about the impacts of AI on children and teenagers.

Known for its reviews of films and TV shows aimed at parents seeking appropriate media for their kids to watch, Common Sense Media recently branched out into AI and has been reviewing AI assistants on its site.

“AI isn’t going anywhere, so it’s important that we help kids understand how to use it responsibly,” Common Sense Media wrote on X. “That’s why we’ve partnered with @OpenAI to help teens and families safely harness the potential of AI.”
