According to the company’s CEO, Sam Altman, this decision was made due to huge demand and lack of computing power.
Since the first OpenAI conference in early November, the company has seen a sharp increase in interest in its products that exceeds its technical capabilities.
In order to ensure high-quality operation of neural networks for users, it was decided to temporarily suspend new subscription registrations.
Let us remember that the new neural network GPT-4 Turbo, which is a more powerful and economical version of GPT-4, was introduced at the conference.
Additionally, ChatGPT users were able to create custom versions of the chatbot for their tasks, even if they had no programming skills.
In the meantime, interested users can submit a subscription request and OpenAI promises to notify them via the app when their subscription continues.
