At $10/month, ChatGPT-4 is reasonable. At $20, that's a no no!

You have to consider costs. If it costs them $15/month to provide the service (just a made up number) then $10/month would not be reasonable. The Plus users also subsidize the Free users to a certain extent.

The other effect at work here is anchoring. OpenAI wants people to be prepared to pay more for AI. Setting a higher price anchors that price in people’s minds and makes it feel normal. This will serve them better in the future since the long-term objective is to provide services that replace employees, who are surely paid more than $20/month.

I use it usually 10-20 times per day. 5-10 when I'm not working and like 20-30 when I'm working. It saves me a huge amount of time. It would already make sense at a wage of $20 but I earn more and so it is so much worth it. Even if I earn no wage (say a indie dev working on a game) it would still be useful because I save time which I can invest in other things (or play video games). I'd honestly pay $50-$100 for it a…

Why are reddit and forums full of people asking how to make chatgpt code work, and are always downvoted?

Even now that it has image generation via DALL-E 3, image comprehension via GPT-4V, and the Android app can hold a voice conversation with you, with unprecedented voice recognition accuracy?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The value it haves for you may exceed or not its price. But "you" is an important part of that equation.

What value does a procedural text generator provide?

Depends on where it sits on a spectrum between, say, a dumb Markov chain, and a human like you and me. GPT-4 is definitely closer to the latter than to the former.

what would a ordinary person use all these for beyond curiosities?

I pay for but i only use it handful of times after i remind myself to use it .

> GPT-4 is definitely closer to the latter than to the former.

That’s a seriously dubious statement.
