"GPT-6-Sol has no soul": users mourn GPT-5.6-Sol's warmth as models get colder
WolframRvnwlf · x · 2026-09-25
- Developer migtissera complains that GPT-6-Sol feels "no soul, no humour, just a mechanical robot" compared to GPT-5.6-Sol, saying he'll really miss 5.6-Sol when it's retired and now sympathizes with the "Bring Back 4o" crowd.
- He says he saw this coming, which is why he trained and released Synthia to preserve that humour, warmth, and empathy, and invites feedback as he keeps improving it. (Note: the GPT-6-Sol/5.6-Sol names come from a personal post and are not officially confirmed.)
- Quoter WolframRvnwlf agrees: "IYKYK. And if you can, you train your own."—the loss of model "personality warmth" across versions is becoming a recurring community gripe.
