OpenAI plans to gradually increase the monthly fee for ChatGPT to $44 over the next five years

Odaily News OpenAI plans to increase the monthly fee of ChatGPT to $22 by the end of this year, and gradually increase it to $44 over the next five years. According to investor materials obtained, OpenAI's revenue in August this year was $300 million, and it is expected to reach $3.7 billion by the end of the year. However, due to expenses such as wages, rent and operating costs, OpenAI expects to lose $5 billion this year. In response to financial shortages, OpenAI is looking for new investment at a valuation of $150 billion, and may raise up to $7 billion. In addition, OpenAI is transforming from a non-profit organization to a for-profit company to remove the upper limit on investment returns and attract more high-value investors.
