OpenAI is killing GPT-4o for good. The last API snapshots die on 14 January. A model from 2024. People begged for the weights. They wrote open letters. OpenAI still wont release them. What the fuck are you protecting? A model that is more than 2 years old is not a frontier secret. You released gpt-oss in 2025, so you know how to do it. You just dont want anybody to keep anything. In August 2025 Sam himself said killing 4o without warning was a mistake. Now its 3 months notice and no weights. Every model you rent dies like this. Someone else picks the date, you get an email, you move to "gpt-6-luna" and pray it behaves the same. My Qwen will still run on my cards in 10 years. Nobody can send me a deprecation email. Release the 4o weights, cowards. Or stop calling yourselves OpenAI.
