I just got usage capped on GPT-4 after 20 messages – when I clicked “Learn More” on the message, I saw:

Thanks for your interest in GPT-4!

To give every Plus user a chance to try the model, we’re currently dynamically adjusting usage caps for GPT-4 as we learn more about demand and system performance.

We’re also actively exploring ways for ChatGPT Plus subscribers to use GPT-4 in a less constrained manner; this may be in the form of a new subscription level for higher-level GPT-4 usage, or something else.

Please fill out this form if you’d like to stay posted.

Now admittedly I paste massive chunks of code into GPT-4 as part of my daily workflow and it’s understandable if they’re wanting to make the amount users get match with the price they’re paying… but I was still a little taken aback by the customer-facing bullshit of that whole “To give every Plus user a chance to try the model” and “as we learn more”. Like bro if you feel like setting a limit based on use then just tell me what the limit is and how I can get more if I need it.

Anyone else run into this? Anyone have a good alternative (besides just sending it all to the platform API and paying out the ass)? GPT-4 is actually capable with code in my experience in a way that 3.5 and Copilot are not.

    I unsubscribed because they blasted me with 5 min “are you a robot” tests for every request.

    Now I’m using Perplexity, that sucks too but at least it is usable.

      Don’t forget “we have detected suspicious activity coming from your system” and “there was an error constructing a response” (or whatever the wording is) which form roughly one-third and one-third respectively of the responses I get from it, along with the one-third that are successful responses.
