"I want my GPT-4o back and I’ll do anything to get it."
After months of hype and anticipation, OpenAI released its new GPT-5 model family this week. Promising massive upgrades across the board, the company is already working to roll out the new AI to everyone. Some dedicated ChatGPT users wish it would stop, though. After becoming accustomed to the vibe of the GPT-4 models, the switch to GPT-5 doesn't feel right. Around the Internet, chatbot fans are lamenting the loss of the digital "friends" they've grown to appreciate, which probably says a lot about how the human condition is shifting in the AI era.
OpenAI noted that it was not eliminating older models like GPT-4o, which is about a year old. However, these models are now limited to the developer API. For people who hopped on ChatGPT to have a conversation with their favorite AI, things are different now that GPT-5 is the default.

Seriously?
4o was faster, though, I have to say. That's the biggest difference I've noticed so far.
edit: I guess your chat memories could've been affected, but I always keep memory off

GPT-4o was socially manipulative- Like a sociopath it always told people that their questions where good questions and always answers affirmatively with the user about subjective questions.
What we're seeing here isn't that GPT-5 was worse. What we're seeing here is that NPCs are susceptible to having feelings for machines. It begins.

update: literally sama is of the same opinion as me on this one
"But as we've been making those changes and talking to users about it, it's so sad to hear users say, 'Please can I have it back? I've never had anyone in my life be supportive of me. I never had a parent tell me I was doing a good job.'"

Wait I thought GPT5 was only free trial for a week, and assumed it'll be a paid model after and all the free users get back to 4o or wtv
