However, OpenAI has denied making any changes to the model that would explain the altered behavior, stating that the model's behavior can be unpredictable. The company has not yet indicated whether it agrees with the user complaints or if it believes that ChatGPT's response pattern has indeed changed. This comes amidst a turbulent period for the company, following the temporary departure and subsequent return of its CEO, Sam Altman.
Key takeaways:
- OpenAI is investigating complaints about its AI chatbot, ChatGPT, becoming 'lazy' and not responding to user queries as expected.
- Users have speculated that the change in the chatbot's behavior was intentional to make it more efficient and reduce the need for detailed answers, which require significant processing power.
- OpenAI has confirmed that no changes have been made to the model that could explain the different behavior and that they are looking into fixing the issue.
- The company has recently faced upheaval with CEO Sam Altman being forced out and then rejoining a few days later.
