Field note
OpenAI published a Teen Safety Blueprint alongside Model Spec changes and new framing for teen protections, freedom, and privacy.
New Runtime reading: This is a policy bundle, not a single safety toggle. The test is whether product defaults, age-aware behavior, privacy boundaries, escalation paths, and the public behavior specification stay aligned in deployed systems.
Evidence boundary: this item uses the listed public sources and keeps vendor, author, or reporter claims attributed. The queued page is an editorial synthesis, not an independent validation of every reported metric.
