#Issues with GPT 4o
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Hi @spark bridge. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Yes, you can control which model is used for your session by selecting the model in the ChatGPT Plus Model Selector. By default, the "Dynamic" option is selected, which automatically chooses the best model based on a combination of intelligence, capabilities, and speed. However, you can manually select a different model if you prefer not to use GPT-4o.
Please note that if you're using the free tier of ChatGPT, you will be defaulted to GPT-4o with a limit on the number of messages you can send using GPT-4o. When this limit is reached, you won't be able to use GPT-4o until your rate limit resets. In such cases, free tier users will be switched back to GPT-3.5.
If you're experiencing issues with your session being killed when your GPT-4o limit is exceeded, it might be due to the rate limits associated with GPT-4o for free users. These rate limits are shared between GPT-4o and ChatGPT. If you hit your text rate limit for GPT-4o, you won't be able to use GPT-4o until your rate limit resets.
If you want to avoid these limitations, you might consider upgrading to the ChatGPT Plus or ChatGPT Enterprise plans, which offer more flexibility and higher rate limits.

@thorn niche can i pick a default model if im free user?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
As a free user, you are defaulted to the GPT-3.5 model, which is the fastest model and great for everyday tasks. However, you also have limited access to GPT-4o, with a limit on the number of messages you can send using GPT-4o. When this limit is reached or GPT-4o is unavailable due to high demand, you will be switched back to GPT-3.5.
Unfortunately, the ability to manually select a default model is not mentioned for free users in the provided sources. The model selection feature seems to be available for paid plans like ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise, where users can switch between the default model, GPT-3.5, and the most capable model, GPT-4.
For more information, you can refer to the following sources:
