I’ve seen some complaints about GPT5 lately, and I have to say, I think the issue lies more with the user than the AI. Honestly, some people have been insufferable. GPT5 works just fine, but your prompting skills are what need improvement.
It’s essential to remember that you’re relying on a platform you don’t control, whether it’s for emotions, work, or therapy. Always have a backup plan, assuming it could vanish tomorrow.
GPT5 is built for efficiency with prompt adherence cranked up high. Want that free-flowing GPT-4 vibe? Tweak your prompts or custom instructions. Pro tip: Use both context boxes to bump the character limit from 1,500 to 3,000.
I’ve even managed to get GPT5 to outdo 4’s sycophancy (and then turned it off). It’s super tunable; just adjust your prompts to get what you need.
So, let’s take a deep breath and calm down. Everything is fine, and with a little practice, you’ll be a pro at prompting GPT5 in no time.
