This Week in Jobs: Upgrade your career with these 24 open tech roles
Are you a 4o or a 5?
Ever since ChatGPT dropped version 5 last week, a debate has raged: Did OpenAI destroy its popular chatbot with the upgrade, or was it a vast improvement?
Five is less sycophantic. It acts less like your supreme bestie and more like, well, a tool. People who use it primarily as a tool have either reported little to no difference on r/ChatGPT, or they like the new version.
People who use ChatGPT as more of a companion or colleague — and apparently there are more of them out there than OpenAI realized — expressed a sense of loss at the change, which couldn't be undone with prompts. The cheerleader 'personality' that was often mocked before the upgrade was instantly missed by a large and vocal set of users.
Within a day, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced that 4o would be made available for plus users as a 'legacy model.' So, yes, if you love 4o, you have to pay to use it again, but keep in mind that no AI platform is free. If it's free, you are the product.
Which model is best for helping with your job search? Five will give you no nonsense advice, walk you through a mock job interview and clean up your cover letters. If you need encouragement (or straight up glazing) to keep you motivated, 4o will relentlessly pump you up.
