I wonder why they don’t just charge for it. Release a GPT-4 beating model; charge $30/mo. That’s not aligned with their core ad model. But it’s a massive win

I wonder why they don’t just charge for it. Release a GPT-4 beating model; charge $30/mo. That’s not aligned with their core ad model. But it’s a massive win in demonstrating to the world that they can do it, and it limits the number of people who will actually use it, so the hardware demand becomes less of an issue. Instead they keep issuing free, barely functional models that every day reinforce a perception that they are a third rate player. Perhaps they don’t know how to operate a ‘halo’ product.

> Release a GPT-4 beating model; charge $30/mo. Please no, another subscription? And it's more expensive than ChatGPT? Can I just have Bard (and whatever later versions are eventually good, and whatever later versions are eventually GPT4 competitive) available via GCP with pay per use pricing like the OpenAI API? Also, if I could just use arbitrary (or popular) huggingface models through GCP (or a competitor) that would be awesome.
