Answers.Text: Thanks. I think the decisive keyword from the documentation you posted is "snapshot". I think OpenAI received some outrage recently, when they announced their intention to remove the previous iteration,  because many 3rd-party researchers and reviewers would have lost their "baseline model" which they refer to in their manuscripts pending review and publication.

Body: <p>I have performed an API call to OpenAI's endpoint <a href="https://api.openai.com/v1/models" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://api.openai.com/v1/models</a> .</p>
  <p>The endpoint lists the currently available engines, and provides basic information about each one such as the owner and availability.</p>
  <p>As a logged-in user, I get a JSON response of 63 models. These are the most recent ones (currently) , formatted, shown with release date.</p>

  <p>I notice that there are 2 very similar models , &quot;gpt-3.5-turbo&quot; and &quot;gpt-3.5-turbo-0301&quot;, with <code>gpt-3.5-turbo-0301</code> released only 11 hours after <code>gpt-3.5-turbo</code>.</p>
