OpenAI looks to take on Anthropic with $100 per month ChatGPT Pro subscriptions
Summary
OpenAI announced a new $100 per month Pro subscription tier for ChatGPT that offers five times more usage of Codex (an AI-powered coding assistant that automates tasks and bug fixes for developers) compared to its $20 per month Plus plan. This move is designed to compete with Anthropic's Claude Code, which offers similar high-usage tiers at comparable price points, as coding assistants have become increasingly popular tools for software development.
