"Per the Journal's report, Beiermeister's termination came after she expressed criticism of a planned ChatGPT feature dubbed "adult mode." The new mode would introduce erotica into the chatbot user experience. Fidji Simo, who serves as OpenAI's CEO of Applications - a role overseeing the company's consumer-facing products - has told reporters that the new feature is planned to launch during the first quarter of this year."
"OpenAI reportedly said that Beiermeister, who was reportedly fired following a leave of absence, had "made valuable contributions during her time at OpenAI, and her departure was not related to any issue she raised while working at the company." Beiermeister's LinkedIn profile says she previously worked for four years on Meta's product team and spent more than seven years working for Palantir."

Beiermeister and other employees raised concerns about how the new feature could potentially impact certain users. OpenAI said she made valuable contributions and that her departure was not related to any issue she raised while working at the company. Beiermeister's LinkedIn lists prior roles at Meta's product team and at Palantir.
