I don't see this as being political doublespeak. He is very clearly just talking about the API.

Right but people are complaining about their experiences with ChatGPT. If you say, "ChatGPT has gotten noticeably worse" and they respond "nothing about our APIs have changed" then it would be reasonable to interpret that as them saying that nothing about ChatGPT has changed. When in reality many things might have changed about ChatGPT.

  He says "the models are static", which means that, if you keep using the same model, you will keep getting the same results.

    That is not what that means

  The tweet is a response to an API user saying GPT-4 got worse, and the tweet is clearly talking about the API and the model - the context of the HN megathread mostly talking about ChatGPT isn't present in the tweet that's being replied to. There's a lot of confusion around this, but nothing appears to be caused by doublespeak to me. Confusion about which GPT/ChatGPT anyone is reporting about has been pretty ubiquitous for a while.

Which is not what anyone else is referring to when they say that GPT-4 has gotten worse.

  What about the API user he's directly replying to in the tweet, who asked if the model changed?

    What made you think that the person he replied to meant to ask about the GPT-4 model/API instead of ChatGPT-on-GPT-4? The latter is what a lot of people refer to when they say "GPT-4." People do not always communicate with infinite precision.

      The tweet specifically refers to the model "Seems like OpenAI updated the model" and if you look at their profile you'll see "CEO @HyperWriteAI, @OthersideAI - I make AIs do the impossible." as well as a pinned tweet announcing that they're building a personal assistant/agent on top of this stuff. I didn't check this part but the OpenAI employee very likely follows them and knows all this context.

Then the HN title is grossly misleading.
