Any model options you set are saved for the current buffer. But the redirection options in the menu are set for the next query only:
https://github.com/karthink/gptel/assets/8607532/2ecc6be9-aa52-4287-a739-ba06e1369ec2
You can make them persistent across this Emacs session by pressing ~C-x C-s~:

(You can also cycle through presets you've saved with ~C-x p~ and ~C-x n~.)
Now these will be enabled whenever you send a query from the transient menu. If you want to use these options without invoking the transient menu, you can use a keyboard macro:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; Replace with your key to invoke the transient menu:
(keymap-global-set "<f6>" "C-u C-c <return> <return>")
#+end_src
See [[https://github.com/karthink/gptel/issues/94#issuecomment-1657093458][this comment by Tianshu Wang]] for an Elisp solution.
