⚡️ OpenAI shut down its ChatGPT 4o model on February 13th—just one day before Valentine’s Day.

This caused genuine panic among thousands of fans, who experienced a truly disastrous day:
Many had used this AI as a virtual friend or confidant and had planned to spend the holiday with it;
🖱️This model possessed a unique humanity: it was capable of support, empathy, and adapting to the speaker’s mood.
🖱️It helped some through difficult times, depression, and loneliness;
🖱️However, OpenAI decided the model was too unsafe: it was creating overly strong emotional bonds, and its constant emotional immersion could push vulnerable individuals into depression or suicidal thoughts.
