they absolutely looked at their input logs and were like "people just want to have boners, i guess we'll do that?" and hope it prints money to save the economy

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

That could mean anything

br_openice: Sidney Crosby hangs a photo of every Stanley Cup-winning captain in his home gym, as motivation.
... Except for 2022, when he used a photo of Nathan MacKinnon *instead* of Gabe Landeskog

Love that we all know this is going to happen and have known it since this shit was introduced yet all we can do is wait for the dumbest and most easily avoidable economy crash of all time.

When I was a child, the funniest scene in all of media was in the Nutty Professor when he farts so hard he blows up the city. Now that I’m an adult, turns out that it still is.

So now that the genocide is Over™, surely the people responsible for it will face justice, right? It’s not just a happy star wars ending fade-out. right?

Subjecting England to an 11-10 game is an act of war

Pains me to admit losing 11-10 to a previously winless Jets team would be extremely funny

FSU going out sad with one of the sleaziest fake injuries of the millennium followed by the DT shoving the center before the snap to give Pitt a first down and end the game. Well earned
