OpenAI releases teen-safety-policy-pack for gpt-oss-safeguard integration

AI Impact Summary

OpenAI has released the teen-safety-policy-pack, a set of teen-focused safety prompts designed to be used with gpt-oss-safeguard and other reasoning models. This enables consistent enforcement of teen-related safety policies across real-time filtering and offline content analysis, covering categories such as graphic violence, sexual content, harmful body ideals, dangerous activities, and age-restricted goods. The pack maps to a DC0–DC3 labeling scheme and includes concrete example policies and guidance for implementation. Teams should plan integration into existing moderation pipelines, validate prompts in production with A/B testing, and align governance and auditing around teen-safety policy usage.
