Oh, *Now* They Want Your Money.
Right, so OpenAI finally figured out they need to actually make some goddamn money off ChatGPT. Shocking, I know. They’ve launched a “Team” plan for $25/month – which is basically just letting more than one idiot use the thing at once. Don’t get excited though, it’s not for *you*. Unless you’re part of some “team” (read: business), forget about it.
The free version? Still throttled to hell and back. Plus, they’re limiting access based on usage – meaning if too many people actually use the free crap, you get screwed. And don’t even *think* about using GPT-4 unless you pay through the nose for ChatGPT Plus. It’s all about squeezing every last cent out of suckers.
Basically, it’s a tiered system designed to make power users cough up cash and keep the casuals…casual. They claim it’s about “resource management,” but we all know what that means: greed. Pure, unadulterated greed. They want your data *and* your money now, apparently.
Don’t expect miracles with this Team plan either. It’s not a speed boost or anything useful like that. Just…more seats at the same slow-ass table. Honestly, it feels less like innovation and more like blatant price gouging.
So yeah, enjoy your limited free access while it lasts, because I guarantee they’ll find new ways to screw you over soon enough. I’m just waiting for them to start charging per token at this point.

And Another Thing…
I once had a user complain that their toaster oven wasn’t “smart” enough. They wanted it to predict when their toast would be burnt based on humidity levels and the phase of the moon. Seriously. People are *this* stupid, and OpenAI is happily enabling them with overpriced toys. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
