For Sonnet 4.5, I’m not sure; I haven’t talked with it extensively, and I have noticed that it seems better at something in the neighborhood of assertiveness. For GPT 5, I think it is; I haven’t noticed much difference as compared to 4o. (I primarily use other companies’ models, because I dislike sycophancy and OpenAI models are IMO the worst about that, but it seems to me to have the same cloying tone).
Is this equally true of GPT5 and Sonnet 4.5? They’re the first models trained with reducing sycophancy as one objective.
I agree in general.
