I don't understand OpenAI's pricing strategy. For free I can talk to GPT 3.5 on an unlimited basis, and a little to GPT 4o. If I pay $20 a month, I can talk to GPT 4o eighty times every three hours, or once every two and a half minutes. That's both way more than I need, and way less than I would expect for twenty dollars a month. I wish they had a $5 per month tier that included, say, eighty messages per 24-hours.
- hackerlight 2y agoIt'll make more sense when they deploy audio and image capability to paying users only, which they say they're going to do in a few weeks
- causality0 2y agoYeah, but I want a tier where I have access to it in a pinch, but won't feel guilty for spending the money and then going a whole month without using it.
- olddustytrail 2y agoGuilty? Over $20 a month? I spend more than that in an hour down the pub.
- causality0 2y agoYou get something for your money at the pub. If you pay twenty dollars for a service and then don't use it you have wasted your money.
- olddustytrail 2y agoWell, yes, I get more liver damage. I wouldn't worry too much about $20. Give an equal amount extra to charity or bet on something. There was a time that amount mattered to me but if you're working any kind of dev/ops job it just doesn't any more.
