OpenAI should really do something about the apps that are just ChatGPT clones with a subscription on it

I mean. They're paying OpenAI for API access to run those clones so OpenAI isn't complaining lol

That’s the way OpenAI makes money 💰

Why on earth would they "do something" about them? Companies doing that is literally OpenAIs business model lol

They only gave the public direct access to chatGPT to drum up excitement for it, the monthly subscriptions from people using chatGPT+ are nothing compared to the API fees from big companies
