I am a paid user running GPT 4o on my iMac using Safari. I type the prompt, go make coffee and I’m not exaggerating when I say that 10 minutes later IT’s STILL HASN’T TYPED A LETTER!
Same for me on M2. It generates like a single word in 5 seconds or so.
I’ve had the same issues, waiting 10-15 seconds until my prompt was actually sent and even more time until I got a response. Adding chatgptDOTcom (not allowed to post links) to the whitelist in uBlock Origin did the trick for me. Now it’s running smoothly again.
Edit: This didn’t resolve the “unusual activity” error message though. It still happens, but I notice way fewer and shorter delays.
I feel can that… For me 3.5 was really a good digital companion. Nowadays I can’t even use it for curiosity and stuff. Its really frustrating. I hope they can just separate 3.5 from 4o (like they have for free and paid users), it would be a lot helpful for many users just wanting to get a quick and short response.
