OpenAI’s release of GPT-5, a unified model designed to eliminate the need for manual model selection, has sparked discontent among ChatGPT users. Launched on Thursday, GPT-5 combines the functionalities of the GPT and o-series, aiming for a self-sufficient AI experience.
However, the simultaneous retirement of older models alongside the new release has triggered complaints. While OpenAI intended to simplify user interaction, many users are seemingly dissatisfied with the change. Specific reasons for the dissatisfaction remain unclear, but the transition appears to have disrupted workflows or preferred functionalities. The move highlights the challenges of balancing innovation with user expectations and the potential downsides of discontinuing older, familiar versions of technology.
