Open AI, the organization behind the very popular viral chatbot tool called Chat GPT, which is a chatbot that is powered by AI, has announced that they will soon begin piloting a premium paid version of ChatGPT called Chat GPT Professional. If you haven’t heard of this tool yet, you can Google it. Almost everybody in the digital and social media space are talking about how amazing this chatbot tool is and it generates content for you and so on. Everything about the tool now is currently free. I’ve been playing around with it for a while and now they are starting to think about monetizing it naturally and they are coming up with this new professional version which will have additional features and hopefully robust servers behind them and so on. And the other news is Microsoft, which is already behind Open AI in many ways, has announced that they are interested to invest further $10 billion into the company to make it part of everything they do. LinkedIn and all of it.
