OpenAI has launched a premium subscription tier, ChatGPT Pro, introducing exclusive access to advanced features and tools. Priced at $200 per month (approximately £158), the subscription offers unlimited use of GPT-4o, advanced voice mode, and the enhanced OpenAI o1 Pro Mode.
The new o1 Pro Mode uses additional computing resources to solve complex tasks like intricate coding, scientific reasoning, and advanced mathematics. It is designed for professionals seeking powerful AI-driven solutions to address sophisticated challenges.
For those not requiring advanced capabilities, the ChatGPT Plus plan, priced at $20 per month (around £16), remains available. It offers early access to new features and models but does not include o1 Pro Mode.
Stable Version of o1 Model Released
Alongside ChatGPT Pro, OpenAI has rolled out the stable version of its o1 model. This update replaces the earlier o1-preview version, initially launched as a limited preview under the code name “Strawberry” in September.
The new o1 model brings significant advancements in problem-solving. It excels at complex, multistep tasks in fields such as science, coding, and mathematics. The model also features improved speed and accuracy. Additionally, its ability to analyze and reason with images marks a breakthrough in AI-driven solutions. Users can now experience quicker, more concise, and precise responses.
The o1 model is currently available to ChatGPT Plus and Team subscribers. Enterprise and educational users will gain access next week.
