CHAT GPT3 FREE vs CHAT GP3 PAID
VERSION
In February, after about two months of free and unlimited use, OpenAI announced
plans to monetize its viral AI chatbot, ChatGPT.
Users can still access the chatbot for free, but those who pay a monthly subscription
to "ChatGPT Plus" will be able to try the updated version of ChatGPT with GPT-4
technology.
Some sort of subscription model for ChatGPT has been in the works for some time.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman raised the possibility in December, calling the operating
costs "mind-blowing" in a Twitter post.
ChatGPT Plus costs $20 per month - this is how the paid version differs from the
free version.
New features
Users registered in the subscription model will have access to the long-awaited
GPT-4. ChatGPT Plus previously promised subscribers priority access to new
features and improvements.
Among other upgrades, GPT-4 can process and understand image prompts and
can engage in longer conversations. OpenAI said the update is more reliable and
creative than its popular predecessor, GPT-3.5.
CEO Sam Altman said the updated chatbot was able to pass the bar exam and
"could score a 5 in multiple AP exams."
Rush hour access
The great popularity of ChatGPT has made it difficult for some users to access
the chatbot when the site is particularly crowded. Frequent users will be familiar
with the "ChatGPT is at full capacity now" waiting page.
However, paying users will have "general access to ChatGPT, even during peak
hours," OpenAI said in a blog post.
Faster responses
ChatGPT usually generates its responses within minutes or even seconds for
simple queries. ChatGPT Plus promises an even faster response time.
Sometimes the chatbot can be delayed by long queries and users are left waiting.
The power of the paid version is still unclear, but the company offers the possibility
of faster responses for users with urgent tasks.
