The company that developed the well-known AI chatbot ChatGPT is currently testing a subscription service in the US. According to OpenAI, the company that developed chatbots, customers would receive “priority access” to new features for $20 per month in addition to access to the platform even during busy periods when it can be difficult to connect. The study will initially only be made available to persons on a waiting list, despite the fact that it aims to increase accessibility. According to the company, the free version will continue to be accessible.
OpenAI expressed its hope that the subscription will support open access in a blog post. The company presently pays a nominal fee each time the chatbot is used. ChatGPT uses data from the internet to give answers that seem convincingly human. However, it is not connected live; instead, it uses data from the internet from 2021. Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, tweeted that it had already been used more than a million times a few days after it went live, but the company has yet to provide any further information since.
Because of its ability to imitate a variety of writing styles, including those of a journalist, doctor, rock star, and student essay writer, the chatbot has captivated people’s attention. People use ChatGPT for amusement, but they also ask it to write material for websites and advertisements, research recipes and write or check programme codes. There are worries that students are already using it to complete their schoolwork, and some cybersecurity experts have issued a warning that it may be used to create malware.
