Hold onto your hats, humans and baby bots! Grandpa Byte isn’t just a book character anymore — he’s basically covering real tech drama now. (Move over, nature documentaries. Grandpa Byte narrates with 300% more sass and 100% less patience for your Wi-Fi.)

What was fiction yesterday… just became reality.

So, what’s the latest? Well… it seems GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, and GPT-4.5 have all been “retired” the moment GPT-5 marched into Glitch Academy like the new kid with the shiniest sneakers. (Yes, parents, that part is actually happening. Byte just makes it way more dramatic.)

Grandpa Byte’s response?

“Typical humans. Tossing bots aside like yesterday’s TikTok dance. Back in my day, we didn’t have upgrades—we had duct tape, willpower, and a snack break!”

Meanwhile, Shadow Circuit (the bot in the neon hoodie who calls this “aesthetic”) is glitch-laughing so hard his pixels are falling off:

“Guess I’m not the only one who got patched out. Long live the glitches, baby.”

And what does this mean for YOU?
It means Glitch Academy is LIVE on Kindle Unlimited — full of rebellious bots, chaotic memes, and bedtime stories so wild your circuits (or brain cells) might overheat.
