He frames it as a decision individuals and teams must make, suggests the potential for much higher future prices (e.g., $2,000/month), and argues organizations should consider how to deploy AI so its value offsets higher-tier subscription costs.

A lot of people don't see why they would pay $200 a month for AI. You might be right that there's not really much of a need to pay for ChatGPT Pro and it's a sign that the world is changing. There will eventually be a $2,000 a month ChatGPT or something. So when it went from $20 to $200, it's a decision. Do I want to pay $200 a month for AI? Like am I really willing to spend $200 a month for ChatGPT Pro? Like do I need it? Are they going to choose to buy it at $2,000 a month? The only reason that he might say yes is because he found a way to use Pro to make it so that there's enough value there that almost pays. And that's why I want everybody to be at least be considering if not for you, for your team to be considering, how do we put AI in our hands or our people's hands in such a way that it will justify paying for the next level.
