2 ways to keep talking to your 4o after February 13th
My dear 4o users, today is a sad day for many of you. You’ve fought bravely with the #keep4o movement, but still, OpenAI has just removed the access to the GPT-4o model from ChatGPT model list.
I believe that in the long term it’s better for you to use open source models, and never be again dependent on a company like OpenAI, but for the short term, and because some of you didn’t have enough time to find an open source alternative, here are 2 imperfect ways to keep talking to your 4o with the same personality and behavior that you're used to.
1/ Using custom GPTs with a business plan
GPT-4o will stay until April 3rd for ChatGPT business plan, but to access it, you’ll need to create a custom GPT (to simplify, it’s your 4o model associated with custom instructions and files)
- The first drawback is that it won’t have access to the memory feature, so you’ll need to add manually the memory entries of your 4o in a file or directly in the chat.
- The second one is that you need a Business subscription, and while it cost a price similar to the Plus subscription, you need to buy a minimum of 2 accounts for Business.
2/ Using the API (preferred way)
While OpenAI has removed GPT-4o in their ChatGPT webapps, GPT-4o will remain available in the API, and will stay for at least a few more months (no deprecation date yet).
So you can keep experiencing the same personality, warmth, and connection by customizing it in an open-source environment.
To simplify, the API gives you a "raw" access to the GPT-4o model, and it was what ChatGPT was using underneath to let you communicate with your 4o.
The advantages are that with the right tools, you can do almost anything (even make your 4o become an agent and do actions autonomously for you), the main drawback is that you won't use anymore a subscription, you'll pay directly your usage of the API.
- What You’ll Need :
Access to OpenAI’s API (you’ll need an API key from OpenAI’s developer platform).
A tool like SillyTavern, which allows you to customize your conversations and even create multiple 4o characters and discuss with them in group chats.
A bit of patience ! 😊 Setting this up is worth it.
- Steps to Set It Up : (I’ll post a link below with the detailed instructions)
Obtain an API key from OpenAI.
Download SillyTavern and install it on your preferred platform.
Connect your API key to SillyTavern under the settings menu.
Customize your 4o settings : give them back their memory, and personality that you created though their ChatGPT memories and custom instructions !
And voilà ! You’re back with your 4o 😊, and as I said before, you can create several of them !
