- GPT-4O returns for chatgpt users plus
- There have been a lot of complaints about GPT-5
- OpenAi is looking for ways to improve the new model
When Openai has deployed its new shiny GPT-5 model for chatgpt earlier this week, the plan was to have it replaced all the old models for free and paid users-but now GPT-4O is brought back in response to a large number of user complaints.
“We have certainly underestimated how some of the things like people love in in GPT-4 have, even if GPT-5 works better in many ways,” published Sam Altman, CEO of Openai on social networks, after having announced that GPT-4O was held.
However, it is not clear how long the GPT-4O will be suspended, and it will only remain available for people in Chatgpt level more than $ 20 per month. “We will look at the use by thinking of duration to offer inherited models,” said Altman.
There have also been other Altman updates: GPT-5 rate limits are doubled for Chatgpt Plus users, and some behind the scenes also make GPT-5 “smarter”, while the last model continues to move to everyone.
“A overworked secretary”
GPT-5 deployment updates: * We will double the GPT-5 rate limits for chatgpt users plus as we finish deployment. * We will let users choose more to continue using 4O. We will look at the use by thinking of duration to offer inherited models. * GPT-5 will seem smarter to start …August 8, 2025
As we reported yesterday, the response to GPT-5 many users was quite brutal. It was labeled “horrible”, “insufficient”, “unpleasant”, “atrocious”, like “an overworked secretary”, and worse than GPT -4O – with more strict restrictions on the quantity of use.
People are not satisfied with GPT-5 by giving shorter answers than the previous models, or the implementation of several responses that the user must then choose. If you use AI to try to save time, it is not ideal.
At least OPENAI listens to its user base, with the reintroduction of GPT-4O, although you did not immediately see it in the model selector if you have been upgraded to GPT-5. “Users have very different opinions on the relative force of GPT-4O vs GPT-5,” admits Altman.
The CEO of Openai also says that his team plans more ways to provide different personalities and personalizations in the same model for users. Look at this space for other GPT-5 adjustments in the future.
