ChatGPT is finally going to collapse, the server is directly crowded, what if it goes down five times in two days? How many days can OpenAI free ChatGPT last for 3 million dollars a month?

Since registration opened on November 30, 2022, ChatGPT has garnered more than 1 million users and a daily peak of hundreds of millions of requests.

Finally, in the case of a huge influx of users, ChatGPT still can not stop: downtime.

Despite the downtime, ChatGPT still left us a hidden poem with deep merit and fame.

Some netizens even found that it also sang us a rap!

Still insisting on singing and dancing and Rap's ChatGPT even after the downtime, it's really touching hhhhh.

Lucas Ropek, author of the US technology website Gizmodo, said that ChatGPT has been slow to respond since last Wednesday:

I first noticed the problem with chatGPT last Wednesday, and the program didn't respond very well during use, so I quit my OpenAI account and tried to log in again, only to receive the following message: "the current request volume is too high, we are trying to expand the system, please wait a moment." "

The outage occurred eight hours after netizens complained about the problem on Monday, according to Down for Everyone or Just Me, a data monitoring website.

The site also collates the period of recent ChatGPT outages, with five outages in the two days from January 9 to 10, ranging from dozens of minutes to 14 hours.

In fact, the problem that the computational cost of ChatGPT is too high has long been highlighted.

In early December, OpenAI, which was just immersed in the joy of breaking through millions of users, was poured cold water by netizens' inquiry of "is it forever free?"

Sam Altman, chief executive, said helplessly: "We have to open the charging model of ChatGPT at some point in the future."

On December 5 last year, it was not hard to see from the recent restrictions on daily use that OpenAI might not be burning long ago.

Yes, and a new version. The good news is that ChatGPT is back up and running, and an updated version was released on January 9th.

This update includes optimizations to the ChatGPT model, improves the authenticity of answers under a wider range of topics, and adds the ability to stop generating ChatGPT responses.

However, as the demand is still high, the historical dialogue cannot be accessed for the time being.

The following is an announcement on OpenAI's official website.

Announcement address: https://help.openai.com/ en / articles / 6825453-chatgpt-release-notes has been restored, but there has been no definite answer to the question of fees that netizens have been worried about.

Netizen: it's over, do you have to pay? Some scholars have said before that the cost of this kind of AI training and output of ChatGPT is not small.

If there are hundreds of millions of user requests for real search engines, assuming that the free strategy continues, OpenAI cannot afford it.

However, if the charging strategy is adopted, it will greatly reduce the user base, so whether to charge or not is a dilemma.

Now, with the surge in the number of users of ChatGPT, OpenAI itself says that free services are not sustainable and that charging is an inevitable trend.

Let's do the bill. how much does OpenAI cost?

According to Tom Goldstein, an analyst at AI industry data, OpenAI spends at least $3 million a month on operating costs.

ChatGPT is hosted on Microsoft's Azure cloud, so OpenAI does not need to purchase a physical server room.

At current rates, Microsoft charges $3 per hour for a single A100 GPU and $0.0003 for each word generated on ChatGPT.

ChatGPT's reply is usually at least 30 words, so a single ChatGPT reply costs the company at least 1 cent.

It will cost at least $3 million a month.

Netizen Yusuke said that when you sign up for your ChatGPT account, you will have a fixed number of requests per month according to the package you choose.

If you exceed the fixed share, you will incur additional costs or will not be able to continue to use it until the next cycle.

Netizens have expressed that they cherish the time when there is free ChatGPT and really want to go back to 2022, when ChatGPT is free and free.

Unexpectedly, there are even people on Twitter who understand how to use ChatGPT to make money (manual dog head), so you don't have to worry about charging if you offset one positive and one negative.
