After weeks of buzz for ChatGPT, Open AI is launching its paid ChatGPT Plus offer in new countries, and in particular in our latitudes. Here is what to remember about this new formula and its deployment in France.
This Friday, February 10, Open AI kicked off its ChatGPT Plus formula in France, initially deployed in the United States, then in other countries (including Belgium, Canada and Israel). This new offer provides access to a more complete version of the chatbot. No new functions per se, but greater availability, mainly for users with advanced use of the tool.
A high price to take advantage of three (big) assets
As specified by Moderator’s Blogthe main interest of ChatGPT Plus is to be able to count on three advantages compared to the classic formula: the tool will remain accessible to “Plus” subscribers even when demand is high (no more waiting list or ” ChatGPT is at capacity right now “); it will offer much faster answers; and it will be able to offer priority access to new features to come.
Still, this new formula is expensive, probably too much for use by individuals who just want to consult the chatbot sometimes. Count 20 dollars for the subscription, to which is added 20% VAT to arrive at a price of 24 dollars including tax. For companies or intensive users of the service, this formula is nevertheless interesting, mainly for the immediate availability it allows and the increased speed then conferred on the tool.
ChatGPT Plus: how to subscribe? (It’s simple)
Note that the launch of ChatGPT Plus in France does not sign the death warrant of the classic and free version of the tool, quite the contrary: it is by financing itself with the “Plus” version that Open AI should maintain free access to the basic version of its AI. ” By offering this subscription price, we will be able to support the availability of free access for as many people as possible. “, reports the BdM.
As for the subscription itself, nothing very complicated. Here’s how to do it if you want to subscribe to ChatGPT Plus:
- Connect from the ChatGPT interface, at this address
- In the options bar visible on the left, click on “Upgrade to Plus”,
- In the window that opens, click this time on “Upgrade plan”,
- Enter the required information, then click “Subscribe”.
