OpenAI opens ChatGPT floodgates with dirt-cheap API

OpenAI has released its ChatGPT and Whisper models to developers, who can now integrate chatbot interaction and speech-to-text conversion via API calls.Information Guide Nigeria

Since its introduction on November 30, 2022, ChatGPT, a language model optimised for question-answering, has garnered considerable attention. If the answer can be found in its training data, it has a good chance of formulating an acceptable response when presented with a text prompt. Or, if prompted with a jailbreak command, it may respond in a manner that violates its security policies.

Whisper is an automatic speech recognition system that was released in September of last year. It is able to convert spoken English into text, which can then be entered into ChatGPT or used for any other speech-to-text application, such as interview transcription.NYSC Portal

The ChatGPT model family released on Wednesday, gpt-3.5-turbo, is priced at $0.002 per 1,000 tokens (750 words), which, according to OpenAI, is 10 times less expensive than previous GPT-3.5 models. The large-V2 model of Whisper costs $0.006 per minute. There is also an open source version of the code, although OpenAI acknowledges that it can be difficult to execute.

In an online post, data scientist Max Woolf observes that the API pricing is incredibly low.

He stated, “I have no idea how OpenAI can profit from this.” “This must be a loss-leader in order to eliminate competitors prior to their launch.”JAMB Result

There is no assurance that these prices will not increase in the future.
