flag OpenAI fired Ryan Beiermeister, a former vice president of product policy, in early January over a sexual discrimination claim against a male colleague, which she denies. flag Her termination followed a leave of absence and coincided with internal disputes over OpenAI’s planned "adult mode" feature for ChatGPT, which she publicly opposed due to risks of harmful AI attachments, especially among minors, and weak child protection safeguards. flag Despite her advocacy for stronger protections and a mentorship program for women, OpenAI stated her departure was unrelated to her concerns. flag The company defends adult mode as responsible for adult users. flag Amid rising competition from Google’s Gemini and Elon Musk’s xAI, OpenAI continues expanding, reaching over 800 million weekly users and advancing ad-based monetization through partnerships like News Corp.
