GPT-3.5 Turbo, DALL·E and Whisper APIs are also generally available, and we are releasing a deprecation plan for older models of the Completions API, which will retire at the beginning of 2024.
So hang on, does that mean that they are going to be fully subscription based moving forward? Because they're phasing out the older models with no replacement. If so, then that sucks.
It's a fun tool for me personally but not something I'd be willing to pay money for right now.
It's a bit of a shame they are depreciating the TextCompletion APIs.
The instruct tuned options are much worse in the variety and sophistication of vocabulary used in my experience.
Though at the same price point as GPT-4 I'd imagine that will be a fine drop in replacement, I just hope the broader trend doesn't stay towards exclusively instruct models, as it really does seem a lot is lost in that additional fine tuning.
