Tech Talks EP31: Age Estimation

In this episode of Tech Talks, Roblox Founder & CEO Dave Baszucki is joined by Rajiv Bhatia (Head of Product, User & Discovery), Naren Koneru (Engineering Lead, Safety), and Eliza Jacobs (Head of Safety Policy) for a deep dive into one of the most important challenges facing online platforms today: enabling authentic communication while keeping users safe. The conversation explores Roblox’s new age estimation and age check technology, including how facial age estimation works, why it’s being introduced now, and how it fits into Roblox’s broader, layered approach to safety and civility. The group discusses the engineering breakthroughs that made this possible, the privacy-preserving design behind the system, and how policy, product, and engineering come together to create developmentally appropriate experiences for users of all ages. --- Want to see more Roblox content?
