Here's how I view it:

Chat is more of a "conversational" medium, where you dash off short and informal messages and expect a very quick if not immediate response.

Email is more of a "correspondence" medium, where you write longer and sometimes much more formal messages, and expect a response within ~24 hours.

The latter would be the better way to use ultra-compute-heavy/long-delay models like o3-Pro, because you don't expect the flow of a conversation, and it would nudge you to be much more detailed in your prompt. In fact, if it had a larger context window, an email-format o3-Pro would be perfect for lawyers and for certain types of data analysis.

I'm not building anything, but if you'd like to, lmk.
