So so so happy about the "no ads" part and do really hope there is a paid option to keep no ads forever. And hopefully the paid subscriptions keep the ads off the free plans for this who aren't as privileged to pay for it.
- somethoughts 1y agoMy hot take is that it will probably follow the Netflix model of pricing once the VC money wants to turn on the profit switch. Originally Netflix was a single tier at $9.99 with no ads. As ZIRP ended and investors told Netflix its VC-like honeymoon period was over - ads were introduced at $6.99 and the basic no ad tier went to $15.99 and the Premium went to 19.99. Currently Netflix ad supported is $7.99, add free is $17.99 and Premium is $24.99. Mapping that on to OpenAI pricing - ChatGPT will be ~$17.99 for ad supported, ~$49.99 for ad free and ~$599 for Pro.
