Are you implying this technology will remain static in its capabilities going forward despite it having seen significant improvement over the last few years?

No, I'm explicitly saying that gpt-4o-2024-11-20 won't get any smarter, no matter how much I use it.

[jhgg]

Does that matter when you can just swap it for gpt-5-whatever at some point in the future?

Someone asked why I hire juniors. I said I hire juniors because they get better. I don't need to use the model for it to get better, I can just wait until it's good and use it then. That's the argument.

I suppose the counterargument would be your investment in OpenAI allows them to fund the better model down the road, but I get your drift :)
