#183Am I missing the o1 release? It's being talked about as if it was available, but I don't see it anywhere, neither API nor ChatGPT Plus.

#184I lived on 200$ monthly salary for 1.6 years. I guess AI will be slowely priced out from 3rd world countries.
Any AI product sold for a price that's affordable on a third-world salary is being heavily subsidized. These models are insanely expensive to train, guzzle electricity to the point that tech companies are investing in their own power plants to keep them running, and are developed by highly sought-after engineers being paid millions of dollars a year. $20/month was always bound to be an intro offer unless they figured out some way to reduce the cost of running the model by an order of magnitude.

#185The idea of giving grants is great but feels like it would be better to give grants to less well funded labs or people. All of these labs can already afford to use Pro mode if they want to - it adds up to about the price of a new laptop every year.
Re: ChatGPT Pro
#186What happens when people get so addicted to using AI they just can’t stand working without it, and then the pricing is pushed up to absurd levels? Will people shell out $2k a year just to use AI?
It can't get too expensive otherwise it's cheaper to just rent some GPUs and run an open source model yourself. China's already got some open source reasoning models that are competitive with o1 at reasoning on many benchmarks.
Re: ChatGPT Pro
#187To be honest, I am less worried about the $200 per month price tag per se. I am more worried about the capability of o1 pro mode being only a slight incremental improvement.

If you do a lot of work in an area that o1 is strong in - $200/month effectively rounds down to $0 - and a single good answer at the right time could justify that entire $200 in a single go.
I feel like a single bad answer at the wrong time could cost a heck of a lot more than $200. And these LLMs are riddled with bad answers.
Re: ChatGPT Pro
#189The price feels outrageous, but I think the unsaid truth of this is that they think o1 is good enough to replace employees. For example, if it's really as good at coding as they say, I could see this being a point where some people decide that a team of 5 devs with o1 pro can do the work of 6 or 7 devs without o1 pro.
No, o1 is definitely not good enough to replace employees. The reason we're launching o1 pro is that we have a small slice of power users who want max usage and max intelligence, and this is just a way to supply that option without making them resort to annoying workarounds like buying 10 accounts and rotating through their rate limits. Really it's just an option for those who'd want it; definitely not trying to push…
Maybe someone at OAI should have considered the optics of leading the "12 days of product releases" with this, then.

I’d like to see more evidence that it’s a scam than just your feelings. Any data there?
I certainly don’t see why mere prediction can’t validate reasoning. Sure, it can’t do it perfectly all the time, but neither can people.
