ChatGPT Go launched in India: How is it different from current AI plans

Hindustan Times2 days ago
OpenAI's ChatGPT has introduced a new low-cost subscription plan that provides expanded access to its most popular features at an affordable price. The new plan, called ChatGPT Go, will be rolled out first in India. According to the official website, this cost-effective subscription will allow users to access higher message limits, more image generations, and additional file uploads compared to ChatGPT's free version.

This new plan will join OpenAI's existing subscription tiers, which currently include ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Pro. Here's how ChatGPT Go differs from ChatGPT Plus:

Cheaper than Plus
ChatGPT Go will be available at ₹399 per month, making it the most affordable plan offered by OpenAI. In comparison, ChatGPT Plus costs ₹1,999 per month. This allows users to enjoy extended benefits at a fraction of the cost.
Access to features
ChatGPT Plus offers priority access during peak usage, continuous use of GPT-4o (the previous flagship model), image generation, file uploads, voice conversations, and access to Sora—OpenAI's text-to-video AI model.
ChatGPT Go, on the other hand, provides access to GPT-5 messages, multimodal tools such as image generation and file uploads, and longer memory—all at a much lower price.
What's not included
Unlike ChatGPT Plus, the Go plan does not include access to legacy models like GPT-4o. It also excludes Sora, which remains available only to Pro and Plus subscribers.

Usage
While ChatGPT Plus is designed for advanced users who need professional-grade tools, including video creation, ChatGPT Go is aimed at users seeking more functionality than the free tier without the higher costs of Plus or Pro. It strikes a balance by offering a wide range of features at a budget-friendly price point, making it ideal for everyday use.

As Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Sanjay Malhotra recently reminded, someone is footing the bill, and for now, it is the government.

The government wants transaction volumes to expand tenfold, but industry participants, including fintechs and banks, say the UPI ecosystem may be nearing a tipping point where technology and operational costs are difficult to absorb. Several executives argue that UPI still has the potential

Sony increases price for PlayStation 5: Here's how much you need to pay now

Sony has increased the price of PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, and PlayStation 5 Pro by $50. This comes after Xbox and Nintendo announced a hike. Sony has increased prices for the PS5 series across the US. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/File Photo(REUTERS) 'Similar to many global businesses, we continue to navigate a challenging economic environment,' Sony stated in a blog post on Wednesday, August 20. It added, "As a result, we've made the difficult decision to increase the recommended retail price for PlayStation 5 consoles in the US starting on August 21.' The price changes follow the US President Donald Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs on imports from global manufacturing hubs, including China and Japan, which has led to fears of supply chain disruptions and increased material costs, according to Reuters. Also Read: PlayStation 5's lifespan was accidentally revealed: Here's how long you have left before PS6 comes in What's the latest price of PS5? Starting from Thursday, gamers planning to buy the latest consoles from Sony will be required to pay $50 extra compared to the earlier amount. As per the official price announced by Sony, fans in the US will now be required to pay as follows: PlayStation 5: $549.99 PlayStation 5 Digital Edition: $499.99 PlayStation 5 Pro: $749.99 Tariffs drive up console prices Ever since its release in 2020, more than 56 million PlayStation 5 consoles have been sold by Sony, leaving the Xbox Series S and X of Microsoft far behind in sales, Bloomberg reported. The United States had earlier implemented tariffs in a bid to encourage onshore manufacturing. Following this, Nintendo and Microsoft announced that they are increasing the prices for their previous consoles as well as related accessories. The tariffs announced by Trump had even impacted the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2 console across the US, while the company attributed the latest change in the prices of its products to 'market conditions.' Michael Pachter, managing director at Wedbush Securities Inc., stated that the companies are making all possible efforts to "spread the impacts of tariffs across whatever they can'. "Components largely come from places outside the US. Manufacturing is definitely outside the US," Bloomberg quoted Pachter as saying.
