Listen, I know this may be stupid, but I highly preferred GPT 3.5, is there a way to access GPT 3.5 in 2025 (official or not)
Yes, the gpt-3.5-turbo still exists in the API, for now.

Is it free though? Because I do not want to pay to use the old API I know and love
An API is an application programming interface. Defined methods for computer programs to interact with each other.
You are thinking of “AI models”, which are the named machine learning inference engines that generate natural language.
The service that offers AI models to programmers is called the API. It is pay-per-use and pay for the amount of data.
