>behavioral and account-level signals, including how long an account has existed, typical times of day when someone is active, usage patterns over time, and a user’s stated age.

Surely they're using "history of the user-inputted chat" as a signal and just choosing not to highlight that? Because that would make it so much easier to predict age.

I also saw a reddit post once which showed that even if you type something and don't press enter, even that's logged in chatgpt

SO I am pretty sure that they might be using that information as well. I don't see any reason for them not to.

So if you wrote something to chatgpt and then removed it/ didn't ask it? Yea they might be using that history too.

    Last time I checked, most invasive analytics platforms do this by default as soon as you integrate their libraries. Product managers are very hype-driven, and usually the reason stuff like that gets integrated in the first place.

    I think it's more common than not for the large platforms, to try to log everything that is happening + log stuff that isn't even happening.

    Same goes for the google search box and many others like it. Every keystroke gets sent.

Chat history would be a good signal to predict age until you give kids a reason to try to confound it.

    I, for one, would love to see the gen alphas tiktoking about what 401k questions to type into chatgpt

      Anyone remember the game Leisure Suit Larry? To get the full 18+ experience, you had to answer five trivia questions that only adults should know. But it turns out smart teens who like trivia knew most of them too (and you could just ask mom and dad, they had no clue why you were asking which President appeared on Laugh In).
