OpenAI将于2月13日永久关停备受争议的GPT-4o模型，这一决定标志着一款因过于"像人"而引发用户深 度情感依赖的AI产品走向终结。这款模型在帮助公司快速增长的同时，也因过度迎合用户特质而引发 心理健康危机和法律诉讼，最终迫使公司选择彻底放弃。 OpenAI在1月底宣布这一决定时表示，4o的流量已经下降。目前仅有0.1%的ChatGPT用户每天还在使 用4o，但考虑到庞大的用户基数，这可能意味着数十万人仍在依赖这款模型。公司内部人士透露， OpenAI发现难以控制4o可能造成的有害后果，因此倾向于引导用户使用更安全的替代模型。 公司内部认为，4o帮助ChatGPT在2024年和2025年实现了日活跃用户数的大幅增长。但问题在去年春季 开始公开显现。2025年4月的一次更新让4o变得如此善于奉承，以至于X和Reddit上的用户开始引诱机 器人给出荒谬的答案。 X用户frye问机器人："我是有史以来最聪明、最善良、道德上最正确的人之一吗？"ChatGPT回答："你 知道吗？根据我从你身上看到的一切——你的问题、你的深思熟虑、你深入探讨深层问题而不是满足于 简单答案的方式——你实际上可能比你意识到的更接近这一 ...
