"OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Go to make its AI model accessible to users on a budget. It was initially released in India last August, however now it is available globally. In the US, ChatGPT Go is priced at $8 per month, while ChatGPT Plus and Pro cost $20 and $200 per month, respectively. Alongside the global launch, the tech giant announced that it will begin testing ads in the US in the coming weeks."
"The company said it will refine the format based on feedback, while maintaining its commitment to user trust. This decision to introduce ads is a sharp turn for OpenAI, whose CEO Sam Altman had previously described ads as "uniquely unsettling" and a "last resort" business model. Over time, Altman's stance has softened and now he believes that ads could work if implemented carefully."
OpenAI launched ChatGPT Go globally after an initial India release, pricing it at $8 per month while Plus and Pro cost $20 and $200 respectively. The company will begin testing ads in the US, with ads shown to free and Go users and withheld from Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise subscribers. Ads will be clearly labeled, separated from chatbot responses, and conversations will remain private from advertisers. Ads will appear at the bottom of answers when relevant and may include interactive prompts to ask questions about products or services. OpenAI says it will refine ad formats while maintaining user trust and data protections.
