Pure speculation and just trying to connect dots... I wonder if they realized they are losing a lot of money on ChatGPT Plus subscriptions. Sam tweeted about pausing sign-ups just a few days ago: https://twitter.com/sama/status/1724626002595471740
Lots more signups recently + OpenAI losing $X for each user = Accelerating losses the board wasn't aware of ?

I had an email from openai last night saying I now have to credit up front for api usage, rather than paying at the end of the month. Thought it was a bit odd for user paying like $3 a month for embeddings. Then looked at the news.
I think they have cash issues. Can’t get more uses due to lack of gpu, and current users are costing too much.
