Mentions of gpt-4 first appear on Hacker News back in 2009, but the term only became common with OpenAI’s model releases. The curve peaks in March 2023 with 6,511 mentions, coinciding with the launch of GPT-4, and the lifetime total stands at 76,775 mentions.
The discussion tracks each subsequent model: top threads include GPT-4o, GPT-4.5, and later GPT-5 releases, alongside open-weights announcements. Interest remained active through 2026, though the conversation increasingly shifted toward newer GPT-5-series models rather than GPT-4 itself.
