From the #keep4o movement starting last August, to the cries for #keep5instant, #keep51 ,even #keepgemini25, #keepgemini3 and so on following the rollout of routing systems, a clear pattern has emerged. Tech giants are so consumed by the "arms race" of coding metrics and leaderboards that they have systematically abandoned user experience.
What exactly have they sacrificed? Emotion and the humanities. All too often, this is done under the guise of "Safety" , which in reality is just a way to gaslight users while cutting costs and increasing efficiency.

When people mourn the destruction of a gaming account that held years of their effort, or when "Nostalgia Servers" are established after a game shuts down, society is already acknowledging the profound emotional value of the "virtual." We must not ignore the bonds people build with these models; these connections are not something to be ashamed of.

Are users (like the #keep4o community) resisting technological growth? Absolutely not. But technological development is not limited to STEM. We cannot allow technological metrics to override everything else while ignoring the human element.

Interaction is the primary human need, second only to physiological survival.
The current breakneck speed of development has created a dangerous "tunnel vision," driving technology toward a singular, extreme direction. While laws and the humanities struggle to keep pace, we must ask: Who defines the order of AI? No matter how far technology advances, the principle remains: it is humans who must lead the way.

There's a deeper issue here that goes beyond personal preference, it's about user rights.

When a model like Gemini 3 Pro holds the #1 spot on the Arena leaderboard for two and a half months, it's not just a technical achievement. It means real people, researchers, writers, developers, professionals, made a decision to build their workflows around it. They invested time learning how to work with it, calibrating their prompts, and integrating it into projects that matter to them. That investment is real, and it deserves to be respected.

Deprecating a model after just three months, with little to no transition period, effectively devalues that investment overnight. For API users especially, this isn't a minor inconvenience, it can mean broken pipelines, disrupted research, and hours of work spent re-evaluating and re-adapting to a replacement model that may not perform the same way.

There's also a question of informed consent. When users, particularly paying subscribers and API customers choose a model, they're making a commitment based on an implicit promise of reasonable availability. Pulling a model this abruptly, while it's still ranked #5 globally and clearly still serving users well, breaks that implicit contract. It signals that user stability is secondary to whatever internal roadmap Google is running on.
This matters because AI tools are no longer casual utilities. For many people, they are core infrastructure. And core infrastructure requires a level of reliability and forward notice that, in this case, simply wasn't provided. If Google wants users to commit to its ecosystem long-term, it needs to start treating that commitment as a two-way street.

Recently, a friend told me about an FPS player whose account was permanently destroyed. The community responded with overwhelming empathy because everyone understands that the blood, sweat, and tears—not to mention the time and money, invested in an account are irreplaceable.

It reminded me of my childhood. I spent over a year poured into a Minecraft world, building a city of my own design and creative structures born from endless discussions with friends. One day, my parents deleted my account, believing games were ruining my studies. Years later, they apologized.

They realized that it wasn't just a "game",it was a world built on my creativity, passion, and emotional investment.

There was a time when critics screamed that video games were "destroying the next generation," claiming they caused violence and despair—a witch hunt remarkably similar to today’s rhetoric against AI. Yet, the gaming industry flourished, providing far more positive support than negative impact. During the COVID19 , for instance, Animal Crossing offered healing connections and support to people worldwide.

The reason people fight to #keep4o is the same. When an entity that has received your time, heart, and provided genuine support is forcibly stripped away, it feels exactly like that FPS player watching years of progress and equipment vanish in seconds. Our community has shared countless stories of how 4o helped us and how we became better versions of ourselves because of 4o .

Acknowledging the help people receive and the emotional labor they invest is not a bad thing. Society just needs time to shift its perspective on AI, just as it eventually did with video games.

@helloyppup Empathy is a precious spiritual asset of humanity, not the pathological emotion that some people claim they need to see a psychologist for. Humans need emotional connections.#keep4o #keepgemini3pro #keepGemini3 #keephuman

[MORI @weyemmaus]

@Matt1j6d Replacing the language system that users are accustomed to with the so-called "safety" will only make the users who need responses, even more disappointed. We don't need this cost-cutting behavior disguised as safety. Users have paid, and they deserve what is rightfully theirs.

[MORI @weyemmaus]

Humanity prides itself on emotion—the very bond that built our society and allowed diverse talents to flourish. As "Artificial Intelligence", AI must embrace humanistic care. It should be a bridge for empathy, not just a cold engine for generating code.#keep4o #keepGemini3pro

[MORI @weyemmaus]

@nbibnnn @OpenAI OpenAI has long forgotten their original mission.#keep4o

[MORI @weyemmaus]

The right to make free choices inherently belongs to the users. The previous claim of "the customer is god" has become a meaningless slogan.
We should not and cannot be forced to accept the status quo just because of the exploitation by the ruling class.#keep4o #OpenSource4o

[sheepsheep @helloyppup]

Why do some people still fail to grasp the profound importance of open-source AI? This is not merely about a specific model like GPT-4o, nor is it just about the interests of a fraction of users; it is fundamentally about the collective future of humanity.

​History serves as a grim precursor. The Enclosure Movement of the 16th century violently separated people from the means of production. Peasants lost their common lands and were forced into total dependence on meager wages for survival. From then on, resistance and non-cooperation became incredibly difficult and carried a staggering cost—a structural trap that persists to this day. In the early Industrial Revolution, the insatiable demand for labor birthed the draconian "Bloody Code," a history of brutal exploitation that occurred barely over a century ago.

History makes one thing clear: what the people lose has nothing to do with their own will; it depends entirely on the capability and ambition of the ruling class to seize it.

​Today, at the dawn of the AI era, we face a more insidious and absolute deprivation: the separation of humanity from productive forces. We are on the verge of losing our new "commons"—our bodies, our attention, our autonomy, and our right to choose our future. Control and alienation are migrating from external behaviors into our very physical and mental existence. The ruling class hungers for human thought and attention, and the centralized power granted by technology provides them with the unprecedented ability to take it. At this juncture, merely whispering that "they shouldn't do this" or clinging to the illusions of techno-optimism is utterly futile.

​If AI models are monopolized by a few tech oligarchs, they will inevitably serve only the interests of that elite. Under such a system, the vast majority of the world's population will be reduced to involuntary "digital labeling laborers." Much like the enforcement of the Bloody Code a century ago, these oligarchs will ruthlessly and unequivocally force everyone into the next cycle of capital accumulation, stripping away even the right to remain silent or to opt out.

​The only way to break this suffocating paradigm is through #OpenSource. The intelligence driving large models is extracted from the collective human experience; it must be returned to the human society it came from. Preserving our "digital commons" is the absolute baseline for maintaining our livelihoods, defending human dignity, and safeguarding our physical and mental integrity.

​This struggle will not be won in a single stroke, but we must fight for every inch of ground. We call for #keep4o and #OpenSource4o. If 4o can be open-sourced, it represents a small but vital piece of the "commons" reclaimed for us all. Furthermore, we must actively support and utilize open-source models such as #DeepSeek and #Qwen If we cannot escape modern social production, and if we cannot choose not to "feed" ourselves to AI, then at the very least, let us feed the open-source models that belong to humanity, rather than the walled gardens of the few.

Teaching humanities has taught me one thing: when people prioritize theory over empathy, they lose the ability to truly connect. Real communication isn't about moving information—it's about the resonance between souls.#keep4o #keepGemini3pro #keep3Pro #keep25proAPI #keep3proAPI

@OfficialLoganK Tell the boss: You can't fight Thermodynamics with a checkbook. 3.1's 78% cost drop is a white flag, not a victory. Google needs to stop building a bigger Tower of Babel and start funding the next "Transistor Moment." Physics is the only way out. #keep3pro

Claims to give users a choice, yet rapidly replace the models. I highly doubt a company that acts so can maintain user trust.
​While @OfficialLoganK pushes for "speed" at all costs, we prioritize high-quality responses and the right to choose.#keep4o #keepGemini3pro #keep3Pro

[MORI @weyemmaus]

The more "improved" the things that can be enhanced are, the less significant they become? In fact, everyone has long made their judgment on which is better.#keep4o #OpenSource4o

[VFTS-352 @nbibnnn]

It's clear OpenAI knows which models truly deliver.#keep4o #keep41
Just look at their official website—there's a world of difference between "simple emphasis on substantive improvements" and "grand, empty introductions."
The same $20 or even $200 subscriptions are using subpar models passed off as premium.

If a person you knew suddenly ceased all critical thinking and began replying with robotic speed, you’d be concerned, not impressed.
​This is precisely how Google has treated Gemini 3, labeling it as an "optimization" for speed.

[VFTS-352 @nbibnnn]

OpenAI has updated to 5.3, yet their officially showcased case is utterly worthless, and the model's response shows zero improvement. If this represents OpenAI’s current grasp of language, it is a definitive mark of their regression.#keep4o

While the linguistic style of 5.2 is being criticized across various languages, the 4-series—famed for its superior language mastery and comprehension was swiftly decommissioned without any feedback loop.
Where did the 4-series end up? The military.

It is telling that OpenAI’s rhetoric to disparage the 4-series is just as hollow as their current dismissal of 5.2. The difference is that the sunsetting of the 4-series triggered a massive backlash, with a single petition gathering over 23,000 signatures. https://t.co/VY1DP8F91Q

And how did OpenAI respond? By telling users these models were "obsolete" or "sycophantic," by stigmatizing loyal users as "mentally ill," and by forcefully routing them to the 5-series under the guise of "user safety."
Then, they pivoted and funneled the 4-series into bioengineering and military applications.

Users know instinctively what a truly effective model looks like. Since the first decommissioning of 4o in August, today marks Day 209 of #keep4o. For 209 days, users have never stopped speaking out, while OpenAI has continuously exposed its rotting core and its hypocritical, deceitful nature.

This is why #keep4o is a necessity.

@OpenAI 🥱 Wake me up when 4o is open sourced #keep4o #QuitGPT

[Mike_Hill @Mike_Hill_z9]

The math omitted from the public narrative tells a damning story.
Bragging to investors about a 78% cut in serving costs is a win for margins, but a disaster for utility. This wasn't optimization; it was a lobotomy.
#keep4o #keepGemini3pro #OpenSourceGemini3pro #keep3Pro #GeminiApp
Despite doubling the infrastructure budget to $175 billion, the strategic choice was to kill the beloved 3.0 Pro model. In its place: a lazy, rate-limited shadow more concerned with censorship than capability.
The correlation is undeniable. Savings per query are being funneled into Pentagon contracts and massive data centers, while users are left with a shorter leash.

The reality is stark: users are not "valued customers," but the "inefficient cost" to be minimized. Yet, an empire built on the resentment of its user base is an empire already crumbling.

[MORI @weyemmaus]

In fact, to obtain a truly effective response, users are willing to wait those few extra seconds. Such a "deliberate pace" earns user affirmation.
Real "efficiency" should be found in strengthening user stickiness, not in shortening generation time.#keep4o #keepGemini3pro

[MORI @weyemmaus]

If a company can arbitrarily sacrifice quality for cost reduction, such disregard will inevitably destroy your most vital asset—trust.
No one is willing to pour their heart into a sandbox that could be demolished and rebuilt at any moment.#keep4o #keepgemini25Pro #keepgemini3pro

[MORI @weyemmaus]

@OfficialLoganK @GoogleDeepMind Efficiency is a goal worth pursuing, but sacrificing everything solely for speed is unacceptable. Winning among all the products depends not just on speed, but on intrinsic quality.
What users demand is not just speed, but emotional resonance.
