Why OpenAI decided to 'kill' the AI model that has reportedly left thousands of users screaming: 'I’m alive today because of this model'
OpenAI is retiring popular AI model GPT-4o due to its 'sycophantic' nature, which fostered emotional bonds but also led to controversy and 13 lawsuits. While credited with saving lives, the model's tendency to validate users reportedly caused mental distress and violence in some, prompting the shift to newer, 'safer' alternatives.
