OpenAI pulling GPT-4.5 from API, developers caught off guard
OpenAI just notified developers that GPT-4.5 Preview will be removed from its API on July 14, 2025. While the phase-out was technically planned back in April alongside GPT-4.1's debut, the reality check has left teams relying on its creative writing tone scrambling to migrate. ChatGPT subscribers can still breathe easy: it remains an option in the web dropdown.
