OpenAI is set to announce a series of updates to its AI tools over the next 12 days, including a new premium plan called ChatGPT Pro. The subscription service offers “unlimited” access to advanced models like o1 and GPT-4o, as well as unlimited advanced voice mode and a new o1 mode.
The plan is priced at $200 per month, significantly more expensive than the existing ChatGPT Plus plan, which costs $20 per month. The exact features and benefits of ChatGPT Pro are not yet clear, but it appears to offer more extensive capabilities for users who require advanced AI assistance.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has acknowledged that advancements in artificial general intelligence (AGI) are limited by the availability of high-quality training data. However, he has also stated that AGI can be developed, and the company is working towards creating a more comprehensive AI platform.
While some have expressed skepticism about the value of ChatGPT Pro at its $200/month price point, others may see it as necessary for certain applications or users who rely on the service to generate revenue. The announcement marks another step in OpenAI’s efforts to expand its paid offerings while still making its core tools available at no cost to users.
