Who do you think you’re kidding with this rationalization? It doesn’t matter whether your goal is to mislead people, it’s still deception to call something gpt4 when it absolutely isn’t. And your poor responses to this criticism speaks volumes about your character.

It isn't GPT4 and we don't call it that. And we clearly state that on our front page in first few lines. GPT is a term of art. OpenAI does not own it. You can think all you want about my character but I'm sleeping well. There is no effort to be deceptive and I've clearly explained what the name is about and why it was chosen.

Intentions are good here , but the name is highly similar and so if you want to promote the project it seems fitting to rename for the sake of gaining more trust from new users. It is annoying though that the open-source well-intentioned project has to make the change tho.
