OpenAI Gives India Free ChatGPT Access

OpenAI is offering its ChatGPT Go plan free for one year to all users in India, beginning November 4 for a limited promotional period. This move focuses on solidifying the company's standing in one of its largest markets. Existing Go subscribers will also receive the complimentary 12-month access. India presents an immense opportunity with its vast internet and smartphone user base. However, making money from ChatGPT's paid services has proven difficult, despite millions of downloads. ChatGPT Go offers ten times the usage of the free version for generating responses, creating images, and improving memory for personalized interactions. This robust offering arrives as rivals like Perplexity and Google also vie for India's large user base. OpenAI plans further India-specific announcements at its upcoming DevDay Exchange in Bengaluru.
