Following the success of ChatGPT, OpenAI has moved to solidify its position as an AI leader. It is preparing a subscription service for ChatGPT aimed at enterprises called ChatGPT Plus and has closely aligned itself with its former backer Microsoft.

The company is also working with Bain & Co. to offer ChatGPT to corporate clients and has created an enterprise focus version in partnership with Salesforce.

ChatGPT is a fad either, at least according to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who said in a recent earnings call that the OpenAI chatbot has ushered in a 'new computing platform' similar to the PC, Internet and mobile web revolutions.
