Today, you can pay for an OpenAI account that charges $20/month for access to new features, more requests etc.

Things are very backlogged with GPT4. My suspicion is the tradeoff to limit requests is either scaling up their systems or charging customers more.

At this early stage in their PMF for this technology, I'm not sure I could predict which way this would go.

This resolves as YES if:

  • They raise the monthly cost of the current premium tier from $20 to higher

  • They change tiers to have a more expensive premium tier

  • Add a way to pay for individual requests for current monthly subscribers

If they limit the number of users, or add a way to pay for individual requests for non-members, this resolves as NO.

They will reduce quality rather than raise price. Price is for academic users who can't afford it anyway.

How does this resolve if they create multiple paid tiers, one of which is greater than $20/month (e.g., a $10/month tier and $25/month tier)?

@ag Great question! In my head, this question is largely "are they going to use price slow down requests rather than scale up"... but I think to keep it meaningful, we'll say if they "have a tier more expensive than $20/month"

Is this about ChatGPT in general, or specifically premium-tier features like GPT4 or guaranteed access?

Last I knew, you can still use ChatGPT with a free account, but you only have access to the 3.5 model and you might not be allowed access during heavy usage.

Suppose they keep the free tier as it currently is, but just raise the paid tier to $25/month. How would this resolve?

@NLeseul Your last question is exactly what I'm trying to test, yes - if they raise the paid tier to $25/month, this resolves to YES.
