> For $20 a month, the amount of value I get from ChatGPT is incredible.

I agree. Wait until it's $249 a month. You'll feel differently.


At $249/month the market adoption will crash resulting in somewhere in the middle pricing that the market can bear

Competition and local SLMs will also provide a counter to massive price increase

Or much like what is going to happen with Alexa, it just dies because the cost of the service is never going to align with “what the market can bear”. Even at $75/mo, the average person will probably stop being lazy and just go back to doing 10 minutes worth of searching to find answers to basic questions.

This is what I believe will happen. Once pricing is raised to sustainable levels (regardless of profit) I think the customer base will drop off.
That is also a possibility
Even for 500 a month, it's still a lot of value, especially for companies, if two guys with a subscription can replace one person. It's worth it
For what its worth, I already pay 20 for Chatgpt + 100 / month for Claude Code.
