Chatgpt 5 is expremely slow in chatbots and newer models are taking way to long to get added.

What’s going on with this service? Their Chatgpt 5 implementation has been extremely slow since release. Reponses take way over a minute or 2. Their best solution was to use 4.1 whenever I contacted them. 5.1 and 5.2 have already been released and have yet to get added. 5.2 being much faster than 5.0 which should solve this even without Zapier doing much but adding it. As a paying customer, I feel like I have to do all the work, create a detailed directive that can withstand 4.1’s silliness and constantly ask them what’s up with newer models only to get a “we’re working on it”. 

Also, why can’t we edit the title? Left out an ‘o’ there by accident and only noticed after sending.

It looks like some optimizations were just done after I wrote this. Chatgpt 5 on medium reasoning now only takes 25-35 seconds for a reply (still pretty long). High reasoning is still unusable without frequently running into a timeout. OpenAI has released much faster varients since 5.0 and the support from Zapier has been pretty slow with no ETA given.
