Other incidents this year, including a 56-year-old man who killed his mother and a 29-year-old who took her own life, have been linked to the ChatGPT, which wasn't bound by the same mandatory reporting rules that apply to human therapists. How it works: Parents can now regulate how minors from 13 to 17 years old use the chatbot. Parents can invite teens to connect accounts, and they can modify their children's settings.
