Though there are limitations compared to the ChatGPT Plus plan, it will offer a chance for new curious users to try out the capabilities of the gen AI chatbot first-hand.
Once they get hooked to it, there is a high probability of people opting for a premium subscription plan to interact with ChatGPT 4 and ChatGPT 4 Turbo, which can generate images, reply with voice, higher token limits, review old chats and the LLM data is updated up to December 2023.
It's core to our mission to make tools like ChatGPT broadly available so that people can experience the benefits of AI. More than 100 million people across 185 countries use ChatGPT weekly to learn something new, find creative inspiration, and get answers to their questions. Starting today, you can use ChatGPT instantly, without needing to sign-up. We're rolling this out gradually, with the aim to make AI accessible to anyone curious about its capabilities.said OpenAI
