GPT-4 API general availability and deprecation of older models in the Completions API
OpenAI says the GPT-4 API is generally available and older models in the Completions API will be deprecated. Only the title confirms these two facts; the post body is empty and does not disclose scope, timeline, or affected model names. The real issue to watch is migration cost: this is both an API and model transition.
Why it matters: OpenAI opens the GPT-4 API to all paying developers and retires older completion models ada, babbage, curie and davinci on January 4, 2024, so developers must migrate before then.
