Hi. I created a scheduled task that checks for relevant scientific articles on a specific topic every 24 hours. As part of the task, ChatGPT provides me with a brief summary of each article and then ranks them by importance.
However, I’d like to know whether it’s possible to change the model used for this scheduled task and, if so, how I can do that. I’d like to use a model such as GPT-5.6 with High thinking effort to get better results.
