If a model is good enough (I’m not saying this one is that level) I could imagine individuals and businesses paying 20,000 a month. If they’re answering questions at phd level (again, not saying this one is) then for a lot of areas this makes sense

Let me know when the models are actually, verifiably, this good. They're barely good enough to replace interns at this point.

  Let me know where you can find people that are individually capable at performing at intern level in every domain of knowledge and text-based activity known to mankind. "Barely good enough to replace interns" is worth a lot to businesses already. (On that note, a founder of a SAP competitor and a major IT corporation in Poland is fond of saying that "any specialist can be replaced by a finite number of interns". We'll soon get to see how true that is.)

    Cześć! Since when does SAP have competitors? ;-P A friend of mine claims most research is nowadays done by undergraduates because all senior folks are too busy.

  Let me know what kind of intern you can keep around 24/7 for a total monthly outlay of $200, and then we can compare notes.

    Probably one from the Philippines.

      Not 24/7.

        And probably not one that can guess (often poorly, but at least sometimes quite well, and usually at least very much in the right direction) about everything from nuances of seasoning taco meat to particle physics, and do so in ~an instant. $200 seems pretty cheap for a 24/7 [remote] intern with these abilities. That kind of money doesn't even buy a month's worth of Big Macs to feed that intern with. It just seems like a lot (or even absurd) for a subscription to a service on teh Interweb, akin to "$200 for access to a web site? lolwut?"

  If true, $2,400/y isn't bad for a 24/7/365 intern.
