OpenAI has introduced a new policy blueprint aimed at reinforcing child protection frameworks in the United States amid the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence. The initiative, developed in collaboration with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), the Attorney General Alliance, and other child safety organizations, outlines a coordinated approach to prevent and detect child sexual exploitation online. The blueprint emphasizes modernizing laws to address AI-generated and altered child sexual abuse material (CSAM), improving provider reporting and coordination for investigations, and embedding safety-by-design measures into AI systems.
The framework integrates legal, operational, and technical strategies to identify risks earlier, accelerate responses, and enhance accountability across the digital ecosystem. It underscores that no single intervention can solve the problem alone, calling for shared standards and stronger collaboration between technology providers and law enforcement. State Attorneys General Jeff Jackson and Derek Brown, co-chairs of the Attorney General Alliance’s AI Task Force, endorsed the blueprint as a significant step toward aligning industry practices with enforcement needs.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Attorney General Alliance both commended OpenAI’s continued commitment to child safety and responsible AI design, highlighting the importance of collective action to protect children online.
Child sexual exploitation is one of the most urgent challenges of the digital age. AI is rapidly changing both how these harms emerge across the industry and how they can be addressed at scale. At OpenAI, we have built and continue to strengthen
The ‘1 Nojor’ media platform is now live in beta, inviting users to explore and provide feedback as we continue to refine the experience.
