OpenAI considers pricier subscriptions to its Chatbot AI, The Information reports
OpenAI executives have discussed higher-priced subscriptions for upcoming large language models, such as its reasoning-focused Strawberry and a new flagship LLM dubbed Orion, the Information reported.
In early internal talks at OpenAI, subscription prices ranging up to $2,000 per month were discussed, the report said, citing one person with direct knowledge of the numbers.
OpenAI did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
ChatGPT Plus currently costs $20 a month. The free tier of the model is used by hundreds of millions of users every month.
Microsoft-backed OpenAI is working on a project code-named "Strawberry", with the aim to enabling AI models to perform deep research.
Strawberry includes a specialized way of what is known as "post-training" OpenAI's generative AI models, or adapting the base models to hone their performance in specific ways after they have already been "trained" on reams of generalized data.
