1.Start a conversation in ChatGPT.
2.Ask several questions and receive responses using the default model(ChatGPT 5.2).
3.Use the “regenerate” option and switch to a different model (ChatGPT 4o) .
4.Observe the new response after the model switch.
The newly selected model should receive the full conversation history, including previous assistant responses, and behave consistently with the existing context.
After switching models, the newly selected model appears to lack visibility into previous assistant responses generated by the default model. Instead of continuing from the existing context, the new model behaves as if multiple earlier user questions had never been answered, and produces a single aggregated response that re-answers many previously resolved topics in one message.
Platform: ChatGPT Web. Version: The test versions are ChatGPT 5.2 and ChatGPT 4o. Browser: Chrome.
