Yesterday, while using ChatGPT, the AI chatbot that has blown up over the last few months, I noticed things weren’t working as well as usual.
As it turns out, ChatGPT is going premium. After confirming a few weeks ago that it would test a paid plan, OpenAI has rolled out ChatGPT Plus.
Although people will still be able to use the chatbot for free, there are of course some perks that come with a ChatGPT Plus plan. OpenAI says subscribers will have general access to the chatbot, even during peak times. They’ll also get faster response times from ChatGPT, along with priority access to upgrades and new features.
The paid service is available in the US for now. OpenAI plans to gradually invite people from the ChatGPT Plus waitlist to sign up for the service over the coming months. The company is also looking to open up the plan to folks in other countries and regions in the near future.
There’s much so promise here, but it can’t be coincidental that now that there’s a $20 paid app, the free version is suddenly wonky. Food for thought…
