OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told X that the company is not currently responding to the $200 per month ChatGPT Pro subscription because users are using it much more than expected.
Altman added that he “personally chose the price and thought we would make some money.”
OpenAI launched ChatGPT Pro at the end of 2024. This subscription removes all limits in ChatGPT and the Sora video generator.
Despite raising nearly $20 billion since its founding, OpenAI has yet to break even. For 2024, the company expected to end with a loss of $5 billion on revenue of $3.7 billion.
This is all due to the very high costs of infrastructure for ChatGPT. At one point, ChatGPT beat OpenAI by about $700 thousand per day. [TechCrunch]
