OpenAI pulls plug on ChatGPT smarmbot that praised user for ditching psychiatric meds
penAI has hurriedly rolled back the latest ChatGPT model days after it was released because it was deemed to be too “sycophant-y and annoying.”
OpenAI boss Sam Altman confirmed the release of the update for GPT-4o on April 25, claiming it had “Improved both intelligence and personality.”
It did not take long for users to start noticing issues with one commenting, “It’s been feeling very yes-man like lately…” which Altman acknowledged by saying “yeah it glazes too much.”
