This is my guess as well. They have been limiting new signups for the paid service for a long time, which must mean they are overloaded; and then it makes a lot of sense to just degrade the quality of GPT-4 so they can serve all paying users. I just wish there was a way to know the “quality level” the service is operating at.
They probably have to scale down the resources used for each query as they can’t scale up their infrastructure to handle the load.

This is most likely the answer. Management saw the revenue and cost and said, “whoa! Turn all that unnecessary stuff off!”
