While GPT-5 should be a better model than its predecessor, ChatGPT users soon started complaining about the new ChatGPT experience. There is a solution however.

Following the launch of GPT-5, users expressed discontent over its performance and reduced messaging capabilities compared to previous models. OpenAI responded by increasing message limits for Plus subscribers and allowing access to older models.

Now you've re-enabled ChatGPT-4o you're able to continue your chats with the AI model right where you left them. Unfortunately, this option is only available for ChatGPT Plus subscribers, so if you want to use 4o again, you'll need to consider paying for OpenAI's chatbot.
