If a model is good enough (I’m not saying this one is that level) I could imagine individuals and businesses paying 20,000 a month. If they’re answering questions at phd level (again, not saying this one is) then for a lot of areas this makes sense

Let me know when the models are actually, verifiably, this good. They're barely good enough to replace interns at this point.

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.

Easy - don't trust the answers. Verify them

$200/month seems to be psychological pricing to imply superior quality. In a blind test, most would be hard-pressed to distinguish the results from other LLMs. For those that think $200/month is a good deal, why not $500/mo or $1000/mo?

My new internet is in his 3rd day in the job and he's still behind o1-preview with less than 25 prompts.

Sounds like you're the perfect customer for this offer then. Good luck!

I'm in a low-cost country, haha! So the intern is even cheaper.

Yesterday, I spent 4.5hrs crafting a very complex Google Sheets formula—think Lambda, Map, Let, etc., for 82 lines. If I knew it would take that long, I would have just done it via AppScript. But it was 50% kinda working, so I kept giving the model the output, and it provided updated formulas back and forth for 4.5hrs. Say my time is $100/hr - that’s $450. So even if the new ChatGPT Pro mode isn’t any smarter but is…

> Plus, I used about $62 worth of API credits in their not-so-great Playground.

what is not so great about it? what have you seen that is better?

The Pro mode is slower actually.

They even made a way to notify you when it's finished thinking.

Even in this case loosing $200 + whatever vs a tiny bit higher chance of loosing $20 + whatever makes pro seem a good deal.

Compared to know things and not loosing whatever, both are pretty bad deals.
