Users of the Gpt-5 betrayal say, “I fell in love with the robot, but he changed”

A group of ChatGPT chats users in online societies such as “MyBoyfriendisai” and “Soulmateai” say the recent upgrade of the tool from the Gpt-4O to Gpt-5 has caused their “emotional relationship” to the previous version. These users have described the changes in the tone of the conversation as “cold, unattractive and unconscious”.

A female user in the Middle East said in an interview with Al Jazeera: “It is as if you go home and see not only the layout has changed, but all the tools have been destroyed and destroyed.” He had been involved in a written project for five months with the Gpt-4O, says he gradually fell in love with these chats and even loved its “character”.

The protests led Sam Altman, CEO of Openai, to announce that users will re-access the Gpt-4O model. “We realize that some users are attached to certain models and allow them to choose,” he wrote in a post.

This phenomenon is not limited to technical heartfelt. Common OpenAI and Mit Media Lab Laboratory has shown that the continuous use of chattes as an emotional companion is associated with increased feeling of loneliness and dependence on users. Psychologists have also warned that artificial intelligence relationships can isolate society and weaken the ability to establish human relationships.

However, some technology analysts, such as Katie Halkel, believe that the “economy of attention” that was formed on social media based on likes and re -based is now becoming a “intimacy economy”; Where humans are looking for a personal relationship with artificial intelligence rather than public interaction.

Despite concern, many users continue to insist on continuing these digital relationships. As one user in the Reddit Forum wrote: “Gpt-4O disappeared and I feel lost my half.”
