Sam Altman overhyped GPT-5 and the results are underwhelming. Some users are upset with GPT-5’s new personality, but you can restore GPT-4o if you pay for the Plus plan.
GPT-5 issues aren’t particularly limited to its new personality. I personally felt that GPT-5 isn’t that great at maths and finance, especially when compared to GPT-4o, which attempted to answer questions pretty well.
At times, I’m stuck in a loop of replies where I do not get the actual answer.
Regardless, if you’re not happy with GPT-5, you can follow these steps to restore GPT-4o as an option. As I warned above, these steps work only for Plus and Pro accounts:
- Open chatgpt.com
- Click on the profile name at bottom left.
- Click Settings
- Turn on the toggle that says Show legacy models.
Close the pop-up of the settings, and then try to interact with the model selector.
You’ll now see GPT-4o as an option.
OpenAI won’t tell us if it will add GPT-4o as an option to free accounts, but that seems unlikely and I wouldn’t be surprised if GPT-4o eventually retires from Plus and Pro accounts as well.
