OpenAI has partnered with Common Sense Media to maximize the benefits of AI for teens and families while minimizing risks. 

The two organisations will initially collaborate on AI guidelines and education materials for parents, educators and young people, as well as a curation of family-friendly GPTs in the GPT Store based on Common Sense ratings and standards, the company said in the blog post.

"AI offers incredible benefits for families and teens, and our partnership with Common Sense will further strengthen our safety work, ensuring that families and teens can use our tools with confidence," said Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.

OpenAI recently launched the GPT Store, which features millions of GPTs catering to different purposes. 

Common Sense Media is a non-profit organisation that reviews digital media content for kids, ranging from movies, TV shows, books to podcasts. With this partnership, OpenAI intends to create a separate kids' section that would have GPTs to help children educate themselves. This would also make it easier for parents to check how their children are using ChatGPT.

"Together, Common Sense and OpenAI will work to make sure that AI has a positive impact on all teens and families," said James P. Steyer, founder and CEO of Common Sense Media. 

"Our guides and curation will be designed to educate families and educators about safe, responsible use of ChatGPT, so that we can collectively avoid any unintended consequences of this emerging technology,” he added.
