OpenAI begins piloting ChatGPT Professional, a premium version of its chatbot
- isaacfrond 4y agotl;dr OpenAI is planning to charge for its AI-powered ChatGPT chatbot, which can write essays, emails, poems and computer code. The company is “starting to think about how to monetize ChatGPT” as a way to “ensure its long-term viability,” and is considering pricing options for the paid version, called ChatGPT Professional. OpenAI is under pressure to turn a profit on products like ChatGPT ahead of a potential $10 billion investment from Microsoft, which would reportedly net a 49% stake in the company.
