The sycophancy is noticeably worse with 4o, the default model when you are not subscribed. My theory is that is on purpose to lure emotionally vulnerable users into paid subscriptions.

If you have a subscription, I genuinely haven't found any reason to use 4o since o4-mini-high became available.
(Every time I write out these model names I realize, again, how absurdly confusing they must be to casual users..)
Confusing indeed. Didn’t anyone in their marketing point out that maybe “4o” and “o4” are way too similar?
