OpenAI has delayed its planned “adult mode” for ChatGPT again, this time without setting a new launch date. The feature, first teased by Sam Altman back in October, was supposed to ship in Q1 after an initial pushback in December over age verification concerns. Now the company says it needs to focus on intelligence gains, personalization, and making ChatGPT more proactive – framing the delay as a prioritization call rather than a technical blocker. The repeated deferrals follow a pattern across major AI labs where announced features quietly slip as product teams scramble to keep up with the pace of model improvements. OpenAI still says it wants to “treat adults like adults,” but the timeline for that keeps getting longer.
