Yes, for me it also got far slower than I remember any previous version ever being.

And this is not only thinking for me. I think that today was first time I cought up to generated tokens while reading after I left opened tab for quite a long time to finish infetence.

I'm starting to consider switching to Gemini.

Has anybody written about why this is? I recently canceled my ChatGPT subscription that I had held since November of 2022.

I don't follow the benchmarks closely, but I know quality and speed when I see it. ChatGPT feels like its from another generation compared to the others.

Yup. Instant is now too fast and seems to be using the new zero reasoning. Often I subscribe to ChatGPT after a release. This time it's the opposite. Especially with all the other models having drastic improvements.

That's was one of the main reasons I changed to Gemini for everyday usage

You should change providers, not make a post about it

      One of the names here is the actual singer and I was quite surprised when I found out. You do bump into legit people on HN sometimes.
