OpenAI Launches $200/Month ChatGPT Pro Plan

can't think of any researchers that could afford $200 month from their grants, I sure can't and writing it into the grant application would probably not go overall, lol
If I can share one account with 200 people, then maybe it is worth it.
NGL, I won’t pay less than $250/month. They aren’t suckering me in with that low number.
Hmmm research-grade intelligence derived from the web to accelerate their productivity for $200 a month. Isn't this a substitute for some level of fact finding competency with web based research? At some point it's more about the speed to find out relative information to determining your goal then AI will always be doing a superior web crawl summarization.
It be more practical to pay the fees to multiple educational online resources for expert submitted papers that you could hypertext search through for researching.
All the comments indicate to me that nobody here is using what they offer for what it’s intended to be for.
And for those who use it for the purpose it’s made for, 200$ is really not a lot of money at all and you can’t replicate this with less costs at “home” or in your own “IT dungeon” at the office. It’s just not possible.

We won’t hit the ceiling on AI soon, we will on LLMs though.
To be fair they’ve already been the most life changing invention for me since the internet itself, so I don’t really mind if they don’t go much further than they are now.
yes. then the price sounds reasonable for an institution. right?
however, to get its money's worth, that institution or company would need to share its in-house data base, to get analysis that would be worth it to them.
this isn't about fixing people's poor English.
its about gaining insights that otherwise are not possible or usual.
that means using this software on your own in-house database. paying them to actually train on your data.
i actually think not a lot of places are going to take them up on on this amazing low price /s
They won't be able to compete against AWS, Azure, Gemini and Apple once they build out their data centers around the globe won't have any need for ChatGPT.
Infrastructure costs will drown this company.

It may depend on your usage. I have the $20 account, which has limited availability for the o1 model. It works exceptionally well for complex queries. I can imagine that the $200 price is worth it if you were going to be asking complex queries multiple times a day. I use the 4o model and only resort to the o1 model when I’m not getting the desired responses from 4o. So, I'm sticking with the cheaper subscription.
Each question consumes more water than a small village does in a month, and more electricity than it takes to heat a 1 BR apartment for a whole winter.
Well to be fair it took me thirteen words until I scrolled down to the comment section. Once I read “$200 months subscription” it was clear this service is not for me.
It’s prone to hallucinations, who ever it is aimed at, doesn’t matter.
Paying more to waste exponentially more energy just to generate the same awful results. Why is this sort of thing still allowed?
Worth it for me in my research of how my non profit can turn into a for profit business
I've been using o1 preview since it was launched. It wasn't the jump in ability I'd hoped for.
Looking at the video and graphs Altman and crew did "Pro" doesn't seem to be that much better.
I think OpenAI are struggling a bit with the financials.
They've been working from a beggars bowl so far and are now trying to find a way to stay ahead of the likes of Musk, Amazon, Google and even their biggest donor Microsoft but OpenAI doesn't have their deep pockets.
$200 a month for "Pro" isn't going to get them a matching server farm like Musk just built with Nvidia's latest and greatest chips.
They've made my working life so much easier and productive, I hope they continue to be successful but I dont see it looking promising right now.

I wonder what ChatGPT Pro thinks about the price .
.
This company is burning through cash and has no prospects for a viable business model that even remotely covers costs.
The AI bubble burst is going to be catastrophic.
