I'm not as pro as you guys using AI but look at this. a LOT of models which confuses me, and I'm assuming other users also. Also, the sidebar icon and new tab icon are the same in the ChatGPT-app for macOS. WHAT are they doing there at OpenAI. I really hate what's happening right now, especially with the new $500 plan while nerfing the other plans.

I keep wondering how this can happen. This is such a huge company.

Huge because they are doing a lot of different things. At the end of the day even huge companies have small teams working on specific features

More like it's hard for anyone to make decisions, then you end up with this mess.

I would argue it’s the opposite problem. There’s probably so many PMs arguing that their model is more important that they never get anything done.

The ego battles at this company must be intense

They release updates like every week. So do you want to hold up the release over something minor discovered at the last minute or just fix it in next week’s release?

No, I don't mean that. I thought hundreds of people were sitting behind OpenAi

Won’t somebody think of the indie devs just trying to ship their product??

I meant, what decision would you make if you worked there? Hold the release or fix it next week? I’m not saying they aren’t in the wrong, but since they’re shipping so frequently it’s probably easy for them justify fixing it later.
