OpenAI Rolls Out ChatGPT 5.1: Smarter, Friendlier, and More Human
OpenAI has released ChatGPT 5.1, the latest upgrade to its popular AI chatbot, just three months after the launch of GPT-5. The previous version, GPT-5, faced backlash from users who felt it sounded a bit too robotic and sometimes struggled to follow instructions. But with ChatGPT 5.1, OpenAI promises a more engaging and warm conversation experience that feels much closer to chatting with a real person.
The big highlight this time is the introduction of smarter variants and customisable tone settings. Users can now tweak how ChatGPT responds, making it sound more formal, friendly, or whatever suits their needs. This upgrade not only improves the chatbot’s reasoning abilities but also injects some much-needed warmth into conversations.
What’s New in ChatGPT 5.1?
ChatGPT 5.1 builds on user feedback by addressing complaints about mechanical responses. It’s clear that OpenAI listened to its community and worked hard to deliver a more natural, intuitive AI assistant.
Personally, I’m just glad I won’t have to ask my digital assistant to “sound less like a robot” anymore. If only my toaster could take a hint!
