Almost all of these are either free or a marketplace (which is free to access). Only Windows is technically not free, but it comes free with the hardware you buy. And they came at a time when there was not a real competition. It's very hard to beat a free product.
- cloverich 2y agoGood point. Thinking... Facebook's infrastructure is enormously expensive to run. But they manage that for free. And chatgpt can place ads as easily as google. So openai needs to make it cheap to run, then ads, then victory. People citing their current high prices would be right. But human brains are smarter than chatgpt, and vastly more energy efficient. So we know it's possible. Does this oversimplify?
