New Version of ChatGPT is Coming at $20 Monthly

High demand spurs quick transition to paid subscription version

OpenAI, the innovative San Francisco start-up, has made a splash in the tech world with its experimental online chatbot, ChatGPT. This AI-powered language model has garnered widespread interest for its ability to answer questions, write poetry, and engage in conversation on a vast array of topics.

The company has confirmed that it is releasing a commercial version of ChatGPT to be called ChatGPT Plus, which will be available to subscribers for $20 per month. This premium service will offer 24/7 access, quicker response times, and some new features.

This new breed of chatbots is seen as a game-changer in the world of computer software, and is expected to revolutionize internet search engines, virtual assistants, and email programs. ChatGPT has already become a hit with students for writing term papers, and businesses for creating marketing materials. However, the technology also comes with certain limitations, as the chatbots are trained on vast amounts of digital text from the internet, which can sometimes be biased and unreliable. Amid a lot of controversy, some of it possibly initiated by the media, the use and adoption of the service has been lightening fast.

Initially, ChatGPT Plus will only be available to users in the United States, with OpenAI starting a waiting list for the service, which it plans to roll out to other countries soon. Running these chatbots is an expensive affair, with OpenAI spending single-digit cents on each interaction. The new subscription service is aimed at offsetting some of these costs while still offering a free version of the chatbot to users.

As the free service is in jeopardy of becoming congested and perhaps being slower to upgrade, the barrier to other, similar services, such as Jasper AI are coming down and this competition should be good for the emerging technology.

Widespread use already expanding across sectors

The emergence of chatbots like ChatGPT is a testament to over a decade of research and development in the field of computer software. These AI-powered language models have the potential to fundamentally transform a range of online services, including internet search engines (such as Google and Bing), virtual assistants (such as Alexa and Siri), and email platforms (such as Gmail and Outlook).

One of the key advantages of chatbots like ChatGPT is their ability to generate digital text that can be easily adapted for various purposes. Already, students are utilizing the chatbot to write term papers, while companies are using it to craft email messages and other marketing materials. With even news outlets like CNET and Buzzfeed touting plans to publish content with the assistance of CHatGPT, it’s likely to become ubiquitous within months.
