OpenAI seeks to introduce more expensive\u00a0subscription plans<\/a> for upcoming large-language models such as the Strawberry and Orion AI models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"OpenAI<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI\u2019s paid user base, including ChatGPT Enterprise, Team, and Edu users, has surged by nearly 67% since April, surpassing one million on September 5. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The San Francisco-based AI company\u2019s chatbot continues to gain traction due to its advanced language capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a Reuters report\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, OpenAI\u2019s business products have expanded from 600,000 users in April to over one million. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company is reportedly preparing to launch higher-priced subscription tiers for its forthcoming large language models, such as the Strawberry and Orion AI models, with some plans potentially costing up to $2,000 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This news comes just a month after xAI introduced the Grok-2 AI assistant<\/a>, available to X platform users with Premium or Premium+ memberships. xAI, launched in July 2023, could become a significant competitor to OpenAI by the end of 2024, according to Elon Musk during Viva Tech Paris 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI\u2019s Valuation Could Reach $100 Billion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apple and US chipmaker Nvidia are reportedly considering investing in OpenAI\u2019s upcoming funding round, which could value the AI firm at over $100 billion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft, which already holds a 49% stake in OpenAI after investing $13 billion since 2019, will also participate in the round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On August 29, OpenAI announced that ChatGPT\u2019s weekly active users had doubled over the past year, surpassing 200 million. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this growth, OpenAI\u2019s revenue remains below expectations, with annualized sales of approximately $3.4 billion as of May 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI Regulation and Safety Testing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI has expressed support for California\u2019s AB 3211 AI bill, requiring watermarks in the metadata of AI-generated images, videos, and audio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the company has opposed another AI bill, SB 1047, introduced by California State Senator Scott Wiener in February. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We\u2019re sharing the GPT-4o System Card, an end-to-end safety assessment that outlines what we\u2019ve done to track and address safety challenges, including frontier model risks in accordance with our Preparedness Framework. https:\/\/t.co\/xohhlUquEr<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p>— OpenAI (@OpenAI) August 8, 2024<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/blockquote>

SB 1047, co-authored by Senators Richard Roth, Susan Rubio, and Henry Stern, would require AI developers to conduct safety testing on some of their models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 5, the United States, European Union, and United Kingdom signed the Framework Convention on AI, the first legally binding international treaty<\/a> on artificial intelligence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The treaty emphasizes human rights and democratic values in regulating AI in both the public and private sectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the treaty holds signatories accountable for harm or discrimination caused by AI systems, penalties for violations have not yet been determined.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
