Pricing is the alpha and the omega. OpenAI would be getting some very interesting questions today about its cost metrics and margins if it was a public company.

OpenAI is losing money on the $200/month subscription 🤯. It's crazy how expensive it is to run these largest LLMs:
- ChatGPT Pro costs $200/month ($2,400/year) and is still unprofitable for OpenAI due to higher-than-expected usage.
- OpenAI reportedly expected losses of about $5 billion on revenue of $3.7 billion last year, with ChatGPT alone once costing an estimated $700,000 per day to operate. 💸🔥
- They build strong models and do great research. Whether this business model will work in the long run is one of the biggest questions in the AI economy today.
