"Real-time chat rephrasing goes beyond the current filtering for banned language, which replaces certain words and phrases with "#" symbols. Now, Roblox says those words and phrases can be "translated into more respectful language that remains closer to the user's original intent.""
"Whenever this happens, Roblox says "everyone in the chat is notified that the text has been rephrased to keep things civil." Minecraft similarly filters out profanity in certain in-game chats, but its filter only replaces banned words with symbols or blocks messages containing them, rather than rewording messages."
"Roblox's real-time chat rephrasing is currently only available for "in-experience" chats between players who have completed age verification and are in similar age groups. Last month, Roblox began requiring age checks to use its chat features on its platform."
Roblox has introduced an AI-powered real-time chat rephrasing feature that goes beyond traditional content filtering. Instead of replacing banned words with symbols, the system rewrites messages to maintain the user's original intent while using more respectful language. For example, "Hurry TF up!" becomes "Hurry up!" All chat participants receive notifications when rephrasing occurs. This feature is currently limited to in-experience chats between players who have completed age verification and belong to similar age groups. Roblox recently implemented mandatory age checks for chat access, enabling users to communicate only with peers in comparable age brackets.
