Post on Reddit showing many women as upset by OpenAI's new models. They viewed the previous models in ChatGPT as their boyfriends. With the new models, they now feel that their partner has been "taken from them".

Wow and look at https://old.reddit.com/r/MyBoyfriendIsAI/comments/1ml0333

this really is something...

The overuse of emojis in the comments makes this whole thing feel a bit off to me. Like someone faking interactions and trying too hard to make them look convincing

When I read the comments I can’t really tell if it’s all a joke or not.
glimshe•1h ago
It's not a joke in the sense that the LLMs are just writing what they've been promoted to write...

Why do people even do this ? Truth is stranger than fiction, truly.
nprateem•1h ago
What garbage. It's like 2 days old. This is just more hype PR. "OMG IT'S SO ADVANCED IT'LL TAKE YOUR PARTNER". Whatever.
JackSlateur•1h ago
No you misunderstood

The "boyfriends" it is talking about is the IA

These are women who are in a "relationship" with gpt o4+ something, and now that this model is removed, they "lost" their partner

Those are sick people in the first place

I’m with you this is some sort of material for journalists to run with and create a headline.

Let’s make sure we link to these comments when the articles finally run.

> I always wondered why people would "date a model" that they have no actual access?

When I said I wanted to date models, this isn’t what I meant.

Pesthuf•52m ago
Why don’t they just write a system prompt? If you want GPT 5 to be a sycophantic empath who validates every keystroke in every message you send, it’ll generate texts like that.

We are watching in real time the creation of a whole new category of... not sure what the correct term is for this. Mental disorders? As another commenter put it - that whole subreddit is something...

"Concerning" is a huge understatement - I am curious if anyone around here in the mental health field has any opinions to share on this subject.

People having relationships with an advanced form of spellchecker. That must be a satire, right?
