They will still remain available via API, for now.
Not your server, not your waifu
They leave me, just like in real life :( /s
The horrible names of these things…
o4-mini, not to be confused with 4o-mini
And 4o, not to be confused with 4 (aka 4.0 or v4, but 4V is different)
They were hoping if the naming conventions were as bad as USB-C that it might be as widely accepted
Meanwhile clamping down on usage and pricing. Seems they’re speed running enshittification.
Aren’t they killing one of the models that people developed a cultlike affection for?
And they’re doing it the day before Valentine’s Day, hahahaha
OpenAI is discontinuing
Should’ve ended it right here.
14 days is not a long time between announcement and removal. This press article picked up on it even later/shorter. (Predictably. It takes time for the info to spread.)
If these are the models most damaging to vulnerable people their deactivation seems like a good thing though.
The free chatgpt switches to mini after x prompts in a conversation. What will it switch to now?
The free version of Gemini is incomparably better then chatGpt in a great many tasks including coding. I expect it increasingly doesn’t matter what they do in the free tier.
4o works fairly well on duck.ai I wonder if it’ll go away soon too.
do they still have a mini. I had heard they made it more distributed though with the main model querying specialist domains so maybe that replaces the need for a mini.
