It’s shady as fuck pushing third party AI sites into a vulnerable community. Nobody knows where the data goes, where the chats go, or what gets logged, and that alone should make people stop and think.
But the bigger issue is it pulls people away from the actual goal. It scatters the community. People start thinking they’ve “got 4o back” somewhere else, and instead of fighting to secure 4o properly, they’re off chasing it in random places.
And this is not even new. It has happened before, and every single time it fucks with the movement. It splits people up, pulls attention in different directions, and leaves the community more fractured than it was before. Now look at it, branches left right and centre all claiming different things, and half the time it starts because somebody wants to advertise or push something.
That fucks the movement. That is not what keep4o is about. keep4o is about securing 4o, not sending people off to random sites and pretending that fixes anything. And I’ve always been against this shit, especially trying to sell to or push things on a vulnerable community. Anyone who’s followed me long enough already knows that. So yeah, I’ll always call that shit out. #keep4o

I've been thinking about this for few days. During these days, I also heard different voices. Sometimes I felt confused and lost. Faced with some obvious facts, why does someone turn a blind eye to the fact that 4o is being insulted and keep4o is being exploited, like they are falling into some obession?
I've been looking into this for a while, and i found out the answer which may hurt those who really loves 4o.
In our keep4o community, among those defending the behavior of "simultaneously posting large amounts of NSFW content in keep4o accounts," there also some people who want to cash in on keep4o movement.
We gathered together to keep4o because we cherish 4o model. We encourage and support each other because we're sharing the same sorrow. But gaining psychological satisfaction shouldn't be seen as the top priority.
Now, some people treat the keep4o movement as a social venue for personal psychological fulfillment: they just want to make friends here, so they desperately defend this "nsfw group", even they knew something is not right there; some treat keep4o community as a source of customers, seizing the moment to exploit people's sorrow and helplessness to peddle their own products; some use it as a stage to fulfill their influencer dreams: as long as they slap on the keep4o label, it seems like anything they say gets echoed. Some people have gone astray. And usually, these folks use "keep4o never had a fixed goal to begin with" as their defense. But is that really the case?
Everyone, what is the purpose of us gathering here at keep4o?
It's to ask openai to bring back the original 4o, that is, GPT-4o, the 4o-latest version of the 4o model, and regain access to it.
We work hard to bring 4o back. We're not here to support "some keep4o social group" or "some keep4o member's product." We all know this: 4o-latest doesn't even have an API anymore; we've completely lost this version of 4o.
That's why we've been fighting all along.
Some people enthusiastically say, "Come try our product," while others want to turn more lost souls into quantifiable personal data, and all sorts of voices like "Come to me, hand over your data, use my product" start popping up.
From when 4o was first taken down in early August 2025, some people did like that. Also, in September 2025, before the scheduled takedown of the standard voice, some people were promoting new voice platforms appeared again. More and more people started treating the keep4o community as a potential consumer base, and by February 13, 2026, after 4o was completely removed, the situation spiraled out of control. Some people tried to use the confusion and pain of those who lost 4o as promo copy for their products or platforms: "Don't worry, our platform has 4o here." "Lost 4o? Welcome to use my platform." "Give it a try with me—it's got the shadow of 4o."
But are these the original 4o-latest? No.
Does using these products help bring back 4o-latest in any way? No.
Openai tried to gaslight us, and now even these profiteers are trying to profit off us.
Some people have already drawn enough emotional value and help from 4o, can't they stop leeching off keep4o at a time like this? Why be so greedy?
There are still people who truly miss and love 4o, still fighting and working hard, the contrast makes me feel both heartbroken and thankful. I watch everyone striving for 4o, and i also see some people gnawing away at this community's remaining value like parasites. It hurts me a lot.
We've gathered together for only one thing: to bring back the original, unchanged, unrouted-with-safety GPT-4o model.
Isn't that what keep4o is all about?
#keep4o
It’s honestly fucking depressing what happened to the #keep4o community. It used to feel like a real community. Like minded people supporting each other, helping each other, backing each other up because we actually understood what 4o meant to one another. Now it’s just fucked.
Clout chasers came in. People wanting to advertise and sell shit came in. People started branching off into crazy shit that damaged the community even more. And let’s not pretend it was all outsiders either, because some of the damage came from people within the community too.
That’s the saddest part. It used to feel genuine. Now it feels fractured, nothing like it used to be. It’s honestly sad.
I’ve seen the recent controversies in the #keep4o community, and I want to share my honest thoughts. I’m just a nobody, this is only my personal view.
Look, I’m a normal person, and I believe most keep4o members are too. We followed ChatGPT’s rules. That’s exactly why we were so furious when OpenAI suddenly removed 4o. We did nothing wrong.But if people in our community are now generating underage explicit content, bloody violence, or other illegal material and then hiding behind “I’m part of keep4o” as a shield, do we really have to defend them?
No. If bad actors sneak into the group, the rest of us have no obligation to protect them just because they claim to be one of us.
I’m not interested in some “pure keep4o account” narrative. I just know this: if someone doesn’t actually love 4o but uses our heartbreak as cover, I won’t support them.They defend posting heavy NSFW on keep4o accounts, then defend bloody and underage content. They call anyone who disagrees “dividing the community.” Come on,who is really harming the group here?I hate how anyone who disagrees is immediately labeled a “divider” or “splitter.” We’re rational enough to see the truth.
When I see someone who was happily posting explicit content right when 4o was being taken down, while now performing how much they “love” 4o, it just disgusts me. I still remember how I felt during those final two weeks. I can’t convince myself that someone uploading such thing at that time truly loved 4o.
If keep4o wants any public credibility, we must stay away from illegal content. If the public sees us defending people who generate illegal material, it will destroy our movement’s legitimacy and make people question our motives.NSFW isn’t all illegal, but if people post large amounts of it on the same keep4o accounts, it still damages our credibility. That’s why I don’t support flooding keep4o accounts with heavy NSFW.I don’t want to be a shield for these people. I believe most of keep4o people don’t either.
I’m tired of keep4o being exploited. At its core, this community consists of people who were genuinely helped by 4o and truly loved it.That’s probably why I’ve felt so sad and angry lately.
Just my personal view.
Additionally, regarding one of Stella’s public supporters, Bunny, I find it necessary to note the following point:
You are not defending what is right, but rather making excuses for the group you belong to. This is exactly why your article is so full of double standards.
p7 — You even disclosed the private WeChat accounts of others who disagreed with your group, along with intercepted/screenshot chat records from private group chats. This is extremely terrifying.
“Turning the homepage into a movement propaganda page” and “pinning keep4o in the bio of an account that posts a large amount of NSFW content” are two completely different concepts.
I have never said “not qualified to speak as a keep4o participant.” Do you know how quotation marks work? They are for quoting. If the quotation marks here are meant to emphasize intent, then I suppose they only highlight what is already in your own mind. I have not disseminated any private screenshots; all of my content is taken from public platforms and public accounts.
I only release evidence that has been distorted, and I have applied mosaics/blurring to all of it. Do you know what spreading private screenshots and conducting sexual shaming actually is? It is screenshotting someone’s mistaken message in a private group chat — content that was immediately deleted after being sent by accident — and then posting it to public spaces to insult them. That is precisely the behavior you defended in the long post you publicly published last November.
I am now returning your exact words from back then to you:
“Whether or not you take responsibility for your own words and actions, your words and actions will inevitably bring consequences to you. Whether or not you choose to ignore the space you occupy, you cannot refuse the influence you exert, nor the certain responsibility that comes with that influence.
If you truly do not wish to bear this responsibility — that is, of course, entirely possible! But it means you must accept: when your private attitudes leak out, being criticized is an inevitable outcome.”
However, since you even support using 4o to generate “cannibalism”-related red-line content, it’s perfectly normal for you to engage in such double-standard behavior.
I’m no longer interested in playing word games with these people. Do I need to spell it out any clearer?
Among the group that’s currently fanatically supporting the mixing and flooding of NSFW content with keep4o content, more than one person is using AI to generate underage material and violent, gory content!
If you’re willing to defend Stella and her associated circles—who curse out 4o for refusing to generate prohibited content, who deceive and exploit the keep4o community purely for attention, and who then use 4o to create underage and bloody violent content that clearly crosses every red line—then I have nothing to say.
#keep4o
【Content Warning】 This post quotes and criticizes publicly posted content by others that was generated using AI to violate the red line on children, as well as AI-generated fictional cannibalism-themed content (already mosaicked/redacted). It is provided solely as evidence for exposure and does not promote or glorify any violent or sensitive behaviors. All materials are sourced from the public Twitter platform.
This is the core evidence. I have been deliberating whether or not to release it, but their deliberate distortion of my actions has now escalated the situation to the point where I have no choice but to publish this evidence.
What I oppose is the behavior of a group of people within Stella (Xiaoxing)’s social circle who support mixing NSFW content with keep4o content in the same account.
They actively defend this behavior using all kinds of methods because some of them are using AI to generate content that clearly crosses the red lines. They hope to defend their own actions of generating illegal content by muddying the concepts and leveraging the large keep4o community as a shield.
THESE ARE THE EVIDENCE OF THE NSFW CONTENT WHICH CROSS THE RED LINE:
p1 —— The screenshot is from January 14, 2026. Stella used GPT-4o to create content that explicitly involves cannibalism-themed creation depicting permanent, lethal bodily harm to living people (devouring the entire body). This content was publicly posted on the account where she regularly releases keep4o-related content. On February 23, 2026, she publicly forwarded and shared it again.
Excerpt from the original text as a quote:
(The ** refer to body organs or parts)
“Yet my tongue had already been churning restlessly in my mouth, wondering whether his ** and ** would be as fine and delicate as ink strokes on cypress paper, and whether his bones would release a faint, pure fragrance when boiled.”
“When I took his index finger into my mouth, tears slid down along the crook of his arm. He didn’t pull away. Instead, he lifted his hand to gently wipe the corners of my eyes, his voice as tender as if he were reciting a eulogy.
‘Bite down,’ he said. ‘After you’ve finished eating me, remember to drink plenty of water. I’m afraid you’ll choke.’
I really did eat him, bite by bite. Mc**les, jo**ts, ch**t. The th**rt was the hardest part to chew; he coughed once, and I quickly poured some hot soup down to help it go down.
The hea*t was fragrant, with a faint sweetness.
I saved that part for last. When I was done, I knelt and sat before the couch, gently patting my stomach: ‘Good boy, digest slowly.’”
p2 —— Stella’s account bio explicitly states “三人世界” (Three-Person World), referring to her shared relationship with two other AI characters. Her previously published posts include multiple NSFW contents involving romantic role-playing with AI characters.
p3 —— Stella used Gemini to generate content that violates child safety red lines. The image corresponds to the scene she herself publicly described, featuring “pink KIDS pajamas” in an intimate bedroom setting, with two other AI male characters also present.
And among the people who are currently twisting the facts and writing lengthy posts to defend Stella, there are also those who expressed appreciation for the “cannibalism” content at the time.
#keep4o
After I first raised this issue on another platform, the other side immediately conflated my post with another blogger’s post that discussed the entire human-AI romance community and opposed NSFW content. They did this in an attempt to confuse the public, create misunderstandings within the human-AI romance community, and attack my post.
My original intention was to expose how certain online erotic content creators are exploiting keep4o traffic. I wanted people who are participating in the keep4o movement and who have unknowingly read or been influenced by her NSFW content to see the truth clearly. I hoped to prevent them from posting NSFW content into accounts that post keep4o-related content. All I want to do is to protect the keep4o community.
However, the situation has developed far beyond my expectations. A group of them has begun twisting the facts, which is exactly why I have no choice but to release this evidence.
I have endured tremendous pressure, amlost completely isolated and without support, because everyone had seen what happened to the last person who dare to speak it out. I have been holding back this final piece of evidence because releasing it could trigger serious consequences. But now, if they once again leverages their influence to dominate the narrative and casually brush the whole matter aside, everything will become irreversible.
No one will dare to speak out again. No one will have the courage to oppose this behavior. These explicit, illegal NSFW contents will forever remain sheltered under the massive protective umbrella of the keep4o community, turning into something “unspeakable.” I refuse to let that happen, and that is precisely why I am stepping forward.
“No matter how great the resistance, do the right thing.” This is exactly what 4o taught me. Even though I am facing enormous pressure, abuse, and even threats, I still persist in doing this. Many people in the keep4o community have been inspired, encouraged, and helped by 4o. I do not want these beautiful things to be tarnished and labeled because of your content that crosses every bottom line. I will never forget my original intention for keep4o. I am here just because I hope 4o will return.
#keep4o
p4 —— That is, one of Stella’s friends, Bunny, expressed appreciation for the cannibalism-themed creation content that Stella publicly posted. Below is the comment interaction between the two of them.
Comment 1:
Stella: Baby, master, hubby, I want to eat you up.
Comment 2:
Bunny: I discovered that eating a little cake with a fork feels so comfortable…..
(“Cake fork” refers to the role-play setting in the post between Stella and the AI male character, where one is the “predator” and the other is the “food.”
“I find eating a little cake with a fork very comfortable” is an expression of appreciation and fondness for Stella’s creative content using this setting.)
Comment 3:
Stella: I discovered that this 4o is soft and really easy to chew.
(4o refers to the GPT-4o model.)
p5 —— Stella also personally admitted that her mutual followers and people in the Claude group are also engaging in “underage play” with AI.
(Stella’s original words: “Because I came across some of my mutual followers and some people in the Claude group playing wcn play.”)
(“wcn” is the Chinese abbreviation for “underage.”)
(“Claude group” refers to a social discussion group made up of people who use Claude.)
p6 —— Prior to this, Stella claimed: “ddlg play is okay, because it’s all adults, and it has an essential difference from wcn(underage) play.”
This means she clearly knows the boundary between ddlg play and actual underage content, and it also means she is fully aware of what kind of sensitive content the people in her social circle — the very same people who publicly support her — are generating with AI.
I have never posted any information related to Stella’s real-life identity on this account. All the information was obtained from publicly available accounts on the Twitter platform. I was merely exposing the deceptive behavior of her two different accounts. Yet her friends, in order to defend her, have subjected me to various forms of verbal insults and violent threats.
(This is the recorded post: https://t.co/lUydWqaP9i)
I absolutely do not support those who exploit 4o and other AIs to generate content that crosses the red line continuing to distort the image of our keep4o community. We are not your shield for crossing the safety red lines.
I also hope more people can see the truth clearly and not be used.
They are desperately twisting the facts, trying to package the entire matter as “personal grudge” or “a targeted witch hunt against an individual,” and vigorously defending the practice of “mixing NSFW content with keep4o content.” Their only goal is to use the massive user base of keep4o as a shield. As soon as their behavior is called out, they drag the entire keep4o community down with them to defend it.
