OpenAI's ChatGPT developer is exploring new subscription options, including weekly, annual, and lifetime subscriptions, in addition to the existing monthly subscription model.
The proposed new subscription options are hidden in the app code for now, offering more flexibility to users and potentially encouraging more sign-ups.
Pricing details for the new subscription models have not been disclosed yet, but the weekly subscription appears to be an attractive option for quick projects, while a lifetime subscription could be a rare offering in the software industry.
OpenAI is seeking new revenue streams as running AI models is a costly endeavor, and ChatGPT has incurred significant expenses compared to its earnings so far.
