How to switch back from GPT-3.5 to ChatGPT-4 when you reached the limit of 25 messages in 3 hours

Summary

The video script discusses a workaround for a limitation in Chat GPT 4, where exceeding 25 messages in two hours reverts the user to GPT 3.5. The speaker credits Reddit user kinky Cusco for the solution, which involves using Firefox to access the chat, inspecting the network, and modifying the model parameter to switch back to GPT 4. The process is demonstrated step-by-step, showing how to regain access to the advanced features of GPT 4 without starting a new chat and losing conversation history.

Takeaways

• 😀 The video discusses a limitation with Chat GPT 4 where after 25 messages within a two-hour period, it switches to GPT 3.5.
• 🕒 There is no immediate manual way to switch back to GPT 4 once the message limit is exceeded, which can be inconvenient for ongoing conversations.
• 🔄 To switch back to GPT 4, the user suggests waiting for two hours until the quota resets, but this means starting a new conversation and losing history.
• 🛠️ The video credits a Reddit user named 'kinky Cusco' for the solution to manually switch back to GPT 4.
• 🌐 The solution involves using the Firefox browser and navigating to the problematic conversation after the quota has reset.
• 🔍 The user must right-click, select 'Inspect', and then write a test message to initiate the debugging process.
• 📡 In the 'Network' tab, the user should find the conversation and right-click to 'Use as Fetch in Console'.
• 🔧 The console will display a text that includes the model name, which needs to be changed from 'text DaVinci 2.0.2' or similar to 'gpt4'.
• ⚠️ It's important to keep the backslash '/' when changing the model name to ensure the switch works correctly.
• 🏃‍♂️ After making the change, the user should click the 'Run' button and wait for a minute before refreshing the page.
• 🎉 Upon refreshing, the conversation should resume with GPT 4, indicated by a new icon and the model's response style.
• 👋 The video ends with a reminder to follow for more AI-related content and gives credit to the Reddit user for the solution.

Q & A

What is the issue with Chat GPT 4 when more than 25 messages are sent within a two-hour period?

The system switches the user from GPT 4 to GPT 3.5 due to exceeding the 25 message limit within the specified time frame.

Why is switching back to GPT 4 after being switched to GPT 3.5 a problem?

There is no manual way to switch back to GPT 4 once the message limit has been exceeded, and waiting for another two hours to restart the conversation could mean losing the entire conversation history.

What is the solution provided by the video to switch back to GPT 4 after being switched to GPT 3.5?

The video suggests a method involving the use of Firefox's developer tools to manually change the model version in the network request to switch back to GPT 4.

Who is credited with the solution to switch back to GPT 4?

The credit for the solution is given to a Reddit user named kinky Cusco.

What browser is recommended to use for the solution provided in the video?

The video recommends using Firefox to implement the solution.

What steps are involved in the solution to switch back to GPT 4 using Firefox?

The steps include opening the conversation in Firefox, right-clicking to inspect, writing a test message, clicking on the network tab, right-clicking the conversation, using 'use as fetch in console', changing the model version in the console, and running the fetch request.

What should be changed in the console to switch the model version from GPT 3.5 to GPT 4?

In the console, the model version should be changed from 'text DaVinci 2.0.2 render' or similar to 'gpt4', ensuring to keep the backslash intact.

Why is it important to keep the backslash when changing the model version in the console?

The backslash is part of the model identifier and should not be deleted; removing it may cause the switch to not work properly.

What action should be taken after running the fetch request in the console?

After running the fetch request, it is advised to wait for a minute, then close the console, refresh the page, and check if the switch to GPT 4 has been successful.

How can you verify if the switch back to GPT 4 was successful after following the steps?

The switch should be verified by checking for the new GPT 4 icon and by asking a question to see if GPT 4 responds in its characteristic manner.
