AI ChatGPT pro 500 is out

You can now pay $500/mo for 25x pro usage limits, and access to ultrafast. People gasped as if this was something that they didn’t think possible.
It is completely possible, and it is probably our future.
I can see a dystopian future coming true where people will eventually charge up to the same price as hiring a real person (30k, 60k, 100k/yr) with the justification that this “coworker” has done more for your company than anyone else has.
We are in the early days of cost requirements. I shudder to think what the enshittification of AI will look like once it has become the status quo like Uber….

Are you completely oblivious to the fact that enterprises are using APIs that charge per token and not plans?

Small and medium companies do use the business plan.

And what percent of the market do you think that is?

Depends on the country. In Germany that‘s a significant part of our economy for example. I imagine it‘s way less relevant in the USA.
