David Baszucki, founder and CEO of Roblox, appeared in two December 2025 media engagements. On the podcast "Creators on the Blox," he discussed the platform's growth from roughly 100 concurrent users to 150 million daily active users, describing Roblox as "in the forefront of all kinds of societal discussions" including freedom and child safety. He also mentioned working with a team on "hack week" to catalog and potentially release historical Roblox content from the past 20 years, and expressed interest in supporting community-created events, noting that the company is evaluating APIs, tooling, and economic models for such initiatives. In a separate interview with The New York Times, Baszucki addressed allegations regarding child safety on the platform. He rejected the characterization of a predator problem, stating, "I would categorically reject the actual description of what you're saying," while asserting that Roblox is "doing an incredible job at innovating" relative to its scale. He defended the platform's open text communication feature, citing benefits for children finding community, and outlined plans to rely on both human moderators and AI systems to handle moderation at scale, with a stated goal of reaching one billion daily active users.
