ChatGPT plus subscriptions open once more
OpenAI has reopened paid subscriptions for ChatGPT Plus after a brief signup pause. CEO Sam Altman announced that expanded GPU access now accommodates more users on the premium waitlist.
The viral AI chatbot standard version remains free, but Plus members gain exclusive benefits.
What are the new features?
Key additions span-new comprehension features and improved reliability. For example, ChatGPT can process images and voice prompts for more natural, back-and-forth conversation. The upgrade also promises increased speed for time-sensitive queries.
Driving these advances is an integration of the company’s GPT-4 model. OpenAI claims this latest iteration can handle complex, multi-step tasks like passing bar exams.
Such bold aspirations continue fueling public fascination with AI’s broadening potential.
Of course, expanded infrastructure comes at a cost.
Members pay $20 monthly for prioritized access, even during peak demand. Revenue from premium subscribers may further enhance offerings, giving early adopters additional ways to interact with a technology capturing global attention.
