Follow the reflection a The first turbulent week of GPT-5, which appeared on August 7 In four variables-normal, mini, nano, and professionals-with optional “thinking” modes on many of these tasks for a longer and more intense thinking.

The latest Altman update adds new controls to the ChatGPT interface: Users can now choose between the conditions of “Auto”, “Fast” and “Thinking” for GPT-5.
“Thinking”-with a window of 196,000–now holds 3000 messages per week To pay the subscribers, then they can continue to use the lighter “GPT-5 Thinking Mini” mode. Al -Taman indicated that the borders can change depending on the trends of use.
However, GPT-4.5 is still exclusive to professional users due to the high cost of GPU.
Altman also alluded to another change on the horizon: a personal modification of the GPT-5 that aims to feel “warmer” than the current virtual, but less attractive than the GPT-4O accent.
The company explores the customization of a long-term solution-a step that can take the strong emotional attachments that some users have formed with specific models.
