I'll wait for it to hit 2$ (and hallucinate to a reasonable degree). No hurry. Or maybe it will be an office 365 feature in 2, 3 years? Meanwhile, the gpt api will do.

You're assuming the GPT API remains free. Which in the face of a paid, competing service from the same vendor, doesn't seem like a safe assumption.

I mean, sure it'll eventually come down to $2, but by that time, the rest of computing will have moved onto something new.

Is there never going to be a version with less restrictions and filters? That would really be worth paying for.

Yes please. It really needs a “safe search off” mode. It can have a big disclaimer “if you ask for something offensive then you’ll get it”.

The problem is that they actually want to shape the narrative to "safe" content that they approve of. It's disguised moral and political activism.

Given the amount of people programmatically using ChatGPT (which technically you aren't supposed to do), I'm surprised OpenAI is starting with an all-you-can-eat subscription and not offering an API for it, even if it would compete with GPT-3 text-davinci-003.

GPT-3.5 will be available through Azure as an API https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/general-availability-... https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/cognitive-service...

Did you get a response to your app? They have not replied.

$20/month seems more reasonable than the rumored $42 (likely a Hitchhiker's Guide reference) If you are willing to pay for this service, why? What are your use cases?

Where are you seeing pricing information? $20/month still feels pretty steep for someone not using it constantly. I was really hoping they'd have a pay-per-query or something like it similar to DALL-E

Use their API. They have models in their API with similar capabilities and without guardrails.

Technically text-davinci-003 still has guardrails, they're just much much more leinent than they used to be, and OpenAI claims they have their own abuse detection systems.

I'm tempted by this, with how useful ChatGPT has proved in the past at helping point in the right direction for debugging and hard-to-phrase-as-google-query questions.

The price seems a little high for the value proposition, though - I'd be more inclined to subscribe to this if it offered the ability to circumvent some of the filters/limitations on the base model - or maybe if it allowed us to create custom sessions where it had-preingested the corpus of project documentation. That'd be a security nightmare, though.

Premium pricing. I would have been okay with $10/mo, this is pushing it.

Let's see how long this lasts and whether they'll introduce a lower tier.

That would be fun. I understand why they want to limit liability, but it does put a damper on things. I let my kid sit next to me last night and ask ChatGPT various questions, with no coaching on my part. A fair number of them got canned responses suggesting it wasn't an appropriate question to ask. Too bad, I would love to have seen the ML attempt at philosophy.

Instead it kept thinking he was trying to off himself. Nope, just asking a computer loaded questions about the meaning of life.
