OpenAI Pauses New Subscriptions And Upgrades To ChatGPT Plus
- Since the recent OpenAI DevDay, there has been an overwhelming demand that is straining the capacity of ChatGPT.
- Existing Plus users can still access features like GPT-4 Turbo and custom AI models, but there is a waitlist for new signups.
- Demand is so high that Plus subscription accounts are being sold on sites like eBay.
- The move follows recent outages at OpenAI from high usage levels, including DDoS attacks.
- Access is prioritized for Plus users – which is leaving the service slow and sometimes inaccessible to free users.
