OpenAI finally simplifying their product line - Free GPT-5 access announced

In new move, OpenAI is hitting the reset button to its AI models. Sam Altman has announced they're ditching their complicated names of AI models for something much simpler.

OpenAI says Goodbye to Models Confusion!

Remember struggling to choose between GPT-4, GPT-4o, o1, o3, and countless other models?

Those models are coming to an end.

OpenAI's team is as frustrated with the current system as their users are, and they're ready to tear down the confusing model picker.

What's Coming Next?

Before the big simplification, OpenAI will release one last traditional model - GPT-4.5 (nicknamed "Orion").

After that, it's all about GPT-5, which will pack everything into one unified system: voice features, drawing tools, research capabilities, and more.

• In Free users get unlimited access to their most advanced AI (GPT-5).
• In Plus subscribers unlock enhanced capabilities.
• In Pro users ($200/month) get the full power of the system.

Only these three levels are remaining of GPT-5 instead and other models like GPT-4, GPT-4o, o1, o3 will be removed.

Why This Matters

In the fast-moving world of AI, even the experts were getting confused with lots of different models.

OpenAI's decision to simplify isn't just about user-friendliness - it's about making AI technology actually useful instead of just impressive on paper.

While we don't have exact dates for these changes yet, one thing's certain - AI is about to become much more approachable for everyone.
