Investing.com -- OpenAI, led by CEO Sam Altman, has initiated the rollout of its GPT-4.5 to plus tier subscribers. The news came from a series of posts on X by Altman himself. The CEO mentioned that the rollout process will take a few days to complete.

Altman expressed that the company aimed to make GPT-4.5 available to everyone immediately, but the need to launch with a very low rate limit made this impossible. He believes that the new offering will be widely used and appreciated by the users.

In order to allow users to have extended, real-time interactions with the new technology, it was necessary to stagger the rollout, according to Altman. The decision was made to avoid overloading the system with high demand all at once.

The CEO also expressed his anticipation for user feedback and hopes that the decision to stagger the rollout would be understood by the users.

As of today, Altman confirmed that the rollout of GPT-4.5 to plus tier users has officially started and is expected to be completed within the next few days.
