OpenAI released GPT 5 with a lot of fanfare but the early excitement died down when people got to use the AI chatbot and realised that GPT 4o was much better in conversations and more personalised with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">OpenAI confirmed the news via a post on X which says, \u201c&#8221;We\u2019re making GPT-5 warmer and friendlier based on feedback that it felt too formal before. Changes are subtle, but ChatGPT should feel more approachable now.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>ChatGPT Gets Nicer: What To Expect<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">OpenAI has taken the complaints seriously and these feedbacks will ensure the new chatbot is less formal than before. The company says changes will come into effect in a day\u2019s time and more updates will be shared soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Sam Altman, CEO, OpenAI <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/chatgpt-5-is-here-5-key-questions-answered-about-plans-features-and-more-ws-l-9492879.html\">claimed GPT 5 is scary good and performs at PhD level<\/a> but that intelligence seems to have come at the cost of likability as a profile and people clearly didn\u2019t like that side of GPT 5 while using the AI chatbot. The conversational tone of GPT 4o was a hit with the users and it is good that Altman is reverting GPT 5 to this state without taking away its intelligence and other upgrades.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">More importantly, OpenAI claims GPT 5 handles errors much better. GPT 5 got an error rate of 65 percent compared to o3 and 26 percent lower than GPT-4o version. The company has put GPT 5 through over 5,000 hours of external testing to make it more durable and reliable against these issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">ChatGPT 5 comes in three variants: GPT 5, GPT 5 Mini which is a lighter version and the GPT 5 nano that is claimed to be faster and cheaper to run on devices. ChatGPT 5 comes to free users as well but they can only use the GPT 5 and the Mini versions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The company has already made it possible for GPT 5 to work with Microsoft products and GPT 5 Pro tier users will soon be able to connect with Gmail, Google Calendar and more. OpenAI\u2019s new ChatGPT Pro version costs $200 per month which lets you unlock the GPT 5 Pro model and use other premium tier features. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-4625396a04d15488 jsx-986978482 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:28px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news18.co\/gnps-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> to add News18 as your preferred news source on Google, Get latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements.
