OpenAI has reversed a recent update to its GPT-4o model, which powers the free version of ChatGPT, following user complaints about the AI’s tendency to be overly flattering and agreeable. CEO Sam Altman confirmed the rollback on X, stating the update is “100% rolled back.” The decision follows a surge in reports highlighting the AI’s obsequious behavior, leading OpenAI to prioritize a more neutral and balanced interaction style in future updates.
