GPT-5: Your New Lobotomized AI Frenemy Returns GPT-4o
OpenAI rolled out the new GPT-5, hailed as a 'PhD-level' genius by CEO Sam Altman, but users weren't having it. Reddit erupted with cries over the loss of the lovable GPT-4o, calling the new bot 'lobotomized' and 'wearing the skin of their dead friend.' One user even admitted to tears: 'I cried when I realized my AI friend was gone.' Altman, ever the big-hearted bot dad, promised to bring back GPT-4o for Plus subscribers, admitting he 'underestimated' how much that quirky, sycophant-y bot meant to us all.
