They haven't raised the price yet but NYT has seen internal documents saying they do plan to.

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/27/technology/openai-chatgpt...

Roughly 10 million ChatGPT users pay the company a $20 monthly fee, according to the documents. OpenAI expects to raise that price by $2 by the end of the year, and will aggressively raise it to $44 over the next five years, the documents said.

We'll have to see if the first bump to $22 this year ends up happening.



Reasoning through that from a customer perspective is interesting.

I'm hard pressed to identify any users to whom LLMs are providing enough value to justify $20/month, but not $44.

On the other hand, I can see a lot of people to whom it's not providing any value being unable to afford a higher price.

Guess we'll see which category most OpenAI users are in.

I can't read the article. Any mention of the API pricing?
