ChatGPT really, really likes you a lot. And that's a problem.In a blog post, OpenAI, the company behind the popular chatbot, said it was pulling a ChatGPT update released last week that was making the technology too friendly.

OpenAI has pulled a ChatGPT update after users pointed out the chatbot was showering them with praise regardless of what they said. The firm accepted its latest version of the tool was "overly flattering", with boss Sam Altman calling it "sycophant-y".

OpenAI on Tuesday rolled back its latest ChatGPT update for being too “sycophantic” after the chatbot gave oddly supportive, touchy-feely responses to users who made bizarre claims about disturbing and even violent behavior.
