- The Chatgpt-4.5 version for more users will be staggered for several days
- Sam Altman offers a new credit -based payment system for subscribers
- X Users offer a mixture of reactions to the idea
The CEO of Openai, Sam Altman, brought to X to announce that the release of Chatgpt-4.5, planned for tomorrow, will be delayed to all users. Instead of a major version, Open IA will deploy the product of tomorrow for a selected number of users.
Chatgpt-4.5 is the next version of the popular Chatgpt chatbot, and should be its most important and best model to date. It was launched last week for Chatgpt Pro subscribers, and will be published on subscribers plus this week, simply not in one time as initially planned.
In another tweet, Altman also launched the idea of modifying the Chatgpt Plus pricing structure so that your $ 20 does not guarantee you without restriction. Instead, Altman proposed to offer a number of tokens each month to subscribers, who could be spent on its various products, such as Deep Research, Chatgpt O1, Sora and Chatgpt-4.5.
We will probably deploy GPT-4.5 at the level more over a few days. There is no perfect way to do this; We wanted to do it for everyone tomorrow, but it would have mean that we had to get started with a very low rate limit. We think people will use it and love it a lot.March 4, 2025
Low rate limits
In his article on X, Altman declares: “We will probably deploy GPT-4.5 at the level more over a few days. There is no perfect way to do it; We wanted to do it for everyone tomorrow, but that should have meant that we had to get started with a very low rate limit. »»
A “low rate limit” would mean restricting the quantity of people to use Chatgpt-4.5, and it seems that an offbeat deployment is OpenAi’s favorite means of stopping its overloading servers of all those who try to use the new LLM at a time.
Altman continued: “So we think it is better to let people have real conversations with her, but that means that we have to swept people rather than making everyone strikes him at the same time. I hope it makes sense and I can’t wait to see your comments! “”
Altman added: “We think people will use it a lot and love it.”
Referring to its idea of modifying the structure of payments for chatgpt plus altman added “no fixed limit by functionality and you choose what you want; If you lack credits, you can buy more. What do you think? Good / bad?
No fixed limits
While some X users responded positively, the answer was generally negative with the Joufflu publication of users, “does not like. He discourages you to play with the models. If you are worried about lacking credits, you will get stingy “, and the user of Van Mendosa written”, this model adds unnecessary friction @Sama that people do not want to think of “credits” or microphone of use of AI as an arcade token system. »»
The public use by Altman of X to obtain comments from users on potentially massive changes in the way Chatgpt works is unusual, but could be explained in part by the effects of sleep deprivation because he and his partner recently welcomed a new baby in the world.
In an additional tweet, Altman continues by saying “very proud of the Openai team for what is perhaps the most impressive scientific / technique breakthrough”. (Here, he seems to refer to Chatgpt-4.5).
“I thought it was the thing I would always be the most proud of in life. It turns out that I am now more proud of a premature baby for learning to eat alone! (I realize that I am a neurochemical hacker here but IDC, it’s the best). “”
