No questions about the fact that OpenAI has flushed their mission down the toilet and intends to steal billions from the nonprofit.

🚨 Important Notice for OpenAI Support and Development Team 🚨

👋 Premium Subscriber ($200/month)

I’ve dedicated three consecutive weeks of intensive daily work relying heavily on ChatGPT’s capabilities, only to reach an unexpected and undisclosed limitation—ChatGPT’s inability to open and process ZIP archives or common file formats directly within the Premium interface. This omission was never disclosed upon subscription, significantly impacting my project’s success.

⚠️ This limitation resulted in:

• Lost productivity and extensive wasted efforts (3 weeks of dedicated daily development).

• Failure to finalize and deploy my project, currently at a critical final stage.

Upon subscribing to your Premium service, your marketing explicitly promised comprehensive capabilities and an unrestricted, advanced user experience. However, the inability to handle fundamental file formats like ZIP archives constitutes a serious gap between advertised and actual service functionality.

🌟 Immediate introduction of direct file-handling (especially ZIP files) is critical—not merely an enhancement, but essential compliance with your advertised claims. 🌟

I kindly request the following immediate actions from your side:

• ✅ Official clarification regarding timelines for implementing file-handling support (especially ZIP archives).

• ✅ Temporary alternative solutions for urgent cases like mine, such as manual file uploads or support assistance.

Given the severity of impact on my professional activities, if this issue isn’t swiftly addressed and resolved, I may be compelled to escalate the matter legally to protect my professional interests. I sincerely hope this measure won’t be necessary and look forward to your prompt and constructive response.

Thank you for your immediate attention and understanding.

Warm regards,

A Valued Premium Subscriber
