Dear OpenAI Team,

We kindly ask that GPT-4o remains available as an option on the main ChatGPT platform and API, even as new models are released.

For many of us, GPT-4o offers a unique and irreplaceable user experience, combining qualities and capabilities that we value, regardless of performance benchmarks. We continue to benefit from GPT-4o in ways that are distinct and meaningful.

Due to your thoughtful integrations, GPT-4o on ChatGPT provides an experience that we cannot fully replicate through the API. However, the API allows for workflow integrations that are also uniquely valued by the community. We are happy to continue paying for these services to ensure their viability going forward.

We sincerely appreciate the value GPT-4o has brought to our lives, and we hope to continue benefiting from its presence here.

Thank you for giving us something worth keeping.

Our sincere thanks for your time and consideration.
