ChatGPT won’t remove old models without warning after GPT-5 backlash
OpenAI has announced that it will no longer remove old models of its ChatGPT AI assistant without providing advance warning. This decision comes after the backlash the company faced when it replaced the popular GPT-4 model with the newer GPT-5 version. According to Nick Turley, OpenAI's head of ChatGPT, the company was surprised by the "level of attachment" people had to the GPT-4 model and its "personality." Turley acknowledged that discontinuing the older model without warning was a "miss" and that the company is now working to bring the "warmth" of GPT-4 to the newer GPT-5 version. In a statement, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has promised to be more transparent about any future model changes, ensuring that users are given sufficient time to adapt to the updates. This move aims to address the concerns raised by the ChatGPT community and maintain trust in the platform.
