OpenAI seems to be charging $42 a month for the paid version of ChatGPT. It was already clear that there would be a Pro version, but some users have already been able to see the option on the site and purchase the subscription.
The option for the subscription appeared on the site last weekend from ChatGPT in the bottom left column under the name “upgrade your plan”, according to a overview of Synthedia. It then became clear that OpenAI wants $ 42 per month for the service. Some users have been able to close the service and have paid.
The Pro version guarantees, among other things, that you can communicate with ChatGPT, even when it is busy. In addition, paying customers can ask more questions per hour, get faster responses and access new features sooner. There is not yet an API for ChatGPT, as there is for GPT-3, for example.
The payment option has since been removed from the site and OpenAI has not yet put any further details on the site. It is unknown why the option has disappeared again. The $42 figure doesn’t seem to be chosen by chance, as ChatGPT is all about providing answers and 42 in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is the answer to life, the universe and everything.
It became clear earlier that OpenAI is working on a paid version of ChatGPT. A form has been published online for this purpose. ChatGPT Pro would be a way to monetize the chatbot, which has been free to use for some time. In November, OpenAI released run a public version of AI conversation tool ChatGPT.
