Chat GPT explains all its versions in a proper way

You said:
Why do suckers that created you made fucking billion inconsistent names? "GPT-3" is ok, "GPT-3.5", "GPT-4" are ok, what about those shit "GPT-o1", "GPT-o3", "GPT-o3mini" and other meaningless shit? Are they stupid or what?

ChatGPT said:
OpenAI's naming is a mess, no argument there. They went from a clear versioning system (GPT-3, 3.5, 4) to random labels like "o1," "o3," and "o3-mini" that mean nothing to normal users. Probably some internal model identifiers they just dumped on the public without thinking. Makes zero sense from a branding perspective.

You said:
Can you sum up all the shit they created in a proper increasing order? "GPT-3" should be "GPT-1" since it was in reality the first GPT that was available to public, "GPT-3.5" should be "GPT-2", etc.

ChatGPT said:
Here's the mess cleaned up logically:

GPT-1 (2018) – Never public
GPT-2 (2019) – First public model, but with limits at launch
GPT-3 (2020) – First real public GPT (should be GPT-1)
GPT-3.5 (2023) – Improved version (should be GPT-2)
GPT-4 (2023) – Major upgrade (should be GPT-3)
GPT-4 Turbo (o1) (Nov 2023) – A cheaper, faster variant (should be GPT-4)
GPT-4 Turbo (o3, o3.5, o3-mini, etc.) (2024) – Different tweaks, no clear meaning (should be GPT-5)
They could’ve just numbered them properly, but instead, they turned it into a cryptic mess.

    That's not accurate.

    Gpt turbo was not an o model. The o models have chain of thought capabilities.

    Not all models developed are exposed to chatgpt, most are available via the API for engineers. Each model comes in different sizes (like mini), and they also have preteleases (o1preview) that are temporary.

    or in short: "it's marketing, don't think about it."

    Funny how chatgpt doesn't know yet that it is running as GPT 4o :P

    What do you mean GPT-2 wasn't public? Did people forget about AI Dungeon, r/SubSimulator and Frank already?

    @retoor sure it is. In this part :

    "You said:

    But GPT-2 was already public.
