OPENAI BASE MODELS ARE NOT SYCOPHANTIC

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Inverse scaling problems are things that get worse as model size increases. Sycophancy is when a model tends to agree with a human regardless of the truth. Anthropic released great work recently that showed larger models are more sycophantic. However, recent experiments show that OpenAI models don’t suffer from this same problem.
