GPT-5 is here. And they're killing 4o - LevelUP - 08-08-2025
Introducing GPT-5
https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5/
The big upgrade seems to be mostly in its ability to write code, as they say it's now on par with Claude AI.
OpenAI is taking GPT-4o away from me — despite promising they wouldn’t

Users are sad to learn that the option to use 4o is being removed, as this model had a uniquely human feel. I’ll admit that I could really vibe with 4o as it had a distinct flair and sense of humor that the others just don’t.
Quote from the forum thread:
Please reconsider the decision to remove GPT-4o. Don’t destroy what was alive for us.

You’d think with PhD-level intelligence in these AI models, this wouldn't happen. LOL.

It wouldn’t pass elementary school. Ain’t no way it has PhD-level anything.

Are there going to be freebie versions of this offered? Why can't they let the older version be full-fledged and free for those who want to use it? I mean, they're going to be letting a good resource go to waste.

So, after getting nearly 500 posts on this Reddit thread and being memed into oblivion, Sam Altman decided to bring back 4o for Plus users.

I hear the new GPT-5 thinking model only allows 200 requests, then you’re screwed and have to wait a week before making another one. The GPT-4 thinking models would never block you from requests for more than a few hours once you hit the limits.
This new update really messed up a lot of people’s workflows.
OpenAI's GPT-5 rollout is a masterclass in how NOT to treat paying customers.

Yeah the new update really throttles Plus users.

Very cool, I don't even use AI as much as I should to automate things, but it'll be something useful if I ever needed to use the freebie versions...

I still prefer Grok since it does not filter any requests.
