Now, ChatGPT no longer supports Plus payment.

The reason is simple: High demand. Demand was so high that OpenAI had to suspend sales of the Plus.

It is not clear when it will open later.

A few days ago, ChatGPT caused heated discussions due to large-scale account bans, and now it has officially closed the application for Plus paid membership.

Many netizens attribute it to insufficient computing resources, which is no longer a problem that can be solved with money alone. The financial backer, Microsoft, also needs to provide its own user base.

There is no longer enough computing power on earth to meet demand.

# Some netizens who have paid expressed their gratitude: I really can’t imagine going back to the days of GPT-3.5.

Many netizens believe that this is not completely without warning. In fact, in actual experience, the response of GPT-4 is getting slower and slower, and there are many wrong answers.

As expected. 10%-15% of the information has network errors, and the speed is at least 200% slower than before.

One ChatGPT API user reported that there are a lot of latency errors, indicating that it is overloaded in many aspects.

Ever since, someone directly shouted to Microsoft: Please fulfill your promise and provide more servers.

Prior to this, Microsoft was revealed to have spent hundreds of millions of dollars specifically for ChatGPT to build a dedicated supercomputer composed of tens of thousands of Nvidia A100s.

The server architecture has even been adjusted specifically for this purpose, just to provide better computing power for ChatGPT and New Bing.

Not only that, Microsoft has also deployed hundreds of thousands of GPUs in more than 60 Azure data centers for ChatGPT inference.

But now it seems that computing resources worth hundreds of millions of dollars are not enough.

In addition, on Microsoft’s side, some netizens discovered that Bing is also very slow on Sundays. The co-founder of OpenAI also complained that the GPU was not enough. At the end of the day, we're really short of GPUs.

Netizen: New marketing method?

As more netizens discover that new users cannot update to Plus, some questions arise:

Is this a marketing ploy?

#Turn the feature off for a few days so people start talking about it.

What do you think about this matter?
