age inference model, a new system that runs in the background to help determine whether an account belongs to an adult, without always requiring users to verify their age

Quick make sure you all have chat histories talking about the weather with responses like “we needed the rain”, discussions about contemporary jazz, and sharing images and memes of common homeowner woes. Be as Gen X as possible such as talking about how you were outside until sun down as a kid but then telling recent stories about how you called the cops on kids skateboarding in the street outside your home. Anything to convince the model you are 40+.
