There has been many requests to change the default model to GPT-4 due to it's superior output quality, again now that GPT-4 Turbo was launched. However, other users have resisted change because GPT-3.5 is still about an order of magnitude cheaper, and also faster – despite the new GPT-4 Turbo being faster and cheaper than the old GPT-4.
A possible solution would be adding a configuration to the settings page, but this wouldn't adhere to the bonsai tree feature set principle.
If the UI would remember the last selected model, the needs of both user groups would be served without having to add any visible complexity to the user interface.
