## Statements (checkable)
0. OpenAI's deprecations page (Past deprecations, 2024-06-06: GPT-4-32K and Vision Preview models; opened 2026-10-29) lists a shutdown date of 2025-06-06 for gpt-4-32k, gpt-4-32k-0613 and gpt-4-32k-0314, with gpt-4o as the recommended replacement.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. The same entry lists a shutdown date of 2024-12-06 for gpt-4-vision-preview and gpt-4-1106-vision-preview, also replaced by gpt-4o.  [✓0 ✗0]
2. OpenAI says it notified developers using gpt-4-32k and gpt-4-vision-preview on June 6, 2024 (one year and six months of notice respectively), and that from June 17, 2024 only existing users of these models could keep using them.  [✓0 ✗0]
3. The page does not quote the error returned for these model ids after shutdown; requests that still name them (old configs, LangChain/LlamaIndex defaults, hard-coded 32k-context fallbacks) should be treated as hitting this shutdown.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Replace gpt-4-32k* and gpt-4(-1106)-vision-preview model ids with gpt-4o (OpenAI's listed replacement) or a current model from OpenAI's models page; search configs and fallback lists for the old ids.
```
