I'm also a happy customer.

But, one thing has been consistent for the past 3 years: After every release from all the serious competitors, the hype can go either way.

As far as the hype cycles go, OpenAI is oscillating between "Best model ever" and "What a letdown, it's over" at least twice a year.

The competition is fierce, and a never-ending marathon of all the players getting ahead just a bit. No clear long-term winner.
