Sam Altman was also surprised that no one built ChatGPT before OpenAI: "we had the model for ChatGPT in the API for ~10 months before we made ChatGPT .. I sort of thought someone (else) was gonna just build it" (reminder: there are *many* similarly unbuilt products right now)

I remember that people definitely built chatbot interfaces on gpt-3 when it first came out

sure, but none of them were as good of a product as ChatGPT

It costs too much for business to run. Although cutting edge. Its not cost effective.

The GPT-3 API is expensive. ChatGPT is free. Why would anyone but OpenAI build it?

Offering it for free at scale is challenging. Assuming 2c per avg request, 1M users/day sending avg 10 requests/day is $200K/day. That's quite the pre-seed round you need to get that going

The success of ChatGPT is achieved only because it was free to the public, it makes no sense to anyone to burn millions.

Their policies specifically prohibited it. They changed the policy right around the time it was about to be released

"Sam Altman was also surprised that no one built AI waifu before OpenAI"

General-purpose chatbots were explicitly banned for most of the time GPT-3 has been available.

Apparently it cost $3M per day to run ChatGPT. Try to pitch that to any VCs lol
