After announcing the release of its latest leading models, GPT-5, Openai said that the model will occupy each of Chatgpt, and that it will settle on the models on the chat platform.
Tell Openai, through a spokesperson, Venturebeat that GPT-5 “will replace all other models in ChatGPT, so users do not have to choose depending on each task, which applies once you reach GPT-5.” This means that people can no longer choose the GPT-4O, O3, O4-MINI or O4-MINI.
With the start of access to the GPT-5 to ChatGPT Plus, the users of free teams, professionals and teams start, the institution and EDU levels still can only use “Legacy” forms for 60 days.
The news was a surprise for many Chatgpt users, many of whom came to rely on their chosen models to run their daily inquiries. Some people said that the amendment will take some time to get used to it, mainly because they have a workflow on how the model interacts with them or the typical response times.

Other users have claimed that they had developed a “selected contact” model and found a experimental offer in the live broadcasting advertisement asking GPT-4O to write its own effects. GPT-4O loss got more narrow. After all, 4O was the default model for Chatgpt, and some users prefer either or never bother them to switch the models because they worked to meet their needs.
I used 4O as a default setting and found it annoying at first when my custom GPT started to failed to think. I have since come to the thinking model for the discretion of the work related to work, but I am often turning to 4O to get faster questions such as planning a trip or generating gift ideas.
ChatGPT was shot before with the number of models options he presented, prompting the CEO of Openai Germans, to admit in February that his style chosen (where people can choose from a drop -down they prefer) became complicated. Altman pledged to unify the experiment, which now looks like a hint of what they eventually did with GPT-5 on Chatgpt.
Last month, rumors said that Openai would provide an automatic router for models that choose a model for users based on their work burden.
Openai has Sunsetted forms before, but this is the first time that all the models on the chat platform have been removed and replaced in bulk.
The catapult in the future
On the other hand, many people see sunset from GPT-4O and the O3 and O4 family of models such as Openai “Catapulting” 400 million future users.
Some Internet comments claim that people who complain that artificial intelligence models are not intelligent are a direct result of them who do not change the models in the first place. Removing old models as options will force more users to use the latest and most capable models.
Foundation programming facades are safe
For institutions, the effect of losing models such as GPT-4O on Chatgpt will feel the individual or team level. Of course, at the present time, subscribers to the Chatgpt Enterprise layer can still reach all models.
But the institutions that designed their applications or agents on GPT-4O or one of the thinking models can be easily comfortable. Openai Venturebeat told the company that it does not have plans to neglect the models on the API side.
“On the application programming interface, we are not currently planning to neglect old models,” said Openai spokesman. “We will share an advanced notice with developers if we decide the sunset models in the future.”
Many institutions evaluate the models regularly, to the extent of the switch from LLM or a smaller model to save costs. Openai creates a division line: sunset from old models GPT 4O and O3 causes chaos for Chatgpt users, but applications programming facades of safe institutions – at the present time
