Microsoft has been a big supporter of the OpenAI ChatGPT product since the beginning, and has already integrated it into products such as Bing and Edge, as well as Skype. And now in the latest Windows 11 update, ChatGPT will also come to the search box in the operating system’s taskbar. But this is only the beginning, because OpenAI recently announced that his ChatGPT and Whisper are available to developers to use to build their latest software.

ChatGPT services are cheaper than before
After several extensive optimizations, using ChatGPT now costs 90% less than in December. This means that the gtp-3.5-turbo model now costs $0.002 per 1000 tokens. In other words, you can get 500,000 tokens for one dollar.
This new price makes it much cheaper for companies to build a personalized chatbot. But ChatGPT works with text, so what if a company wants its bot to respond to voice commands? That’s where Whisper comes in. This AI model can convert speech to text at a cost of $0.006 per minute ($1 for 2 hours and 45 minutes).
Not only does Whisper understand 99 languages, it can also provide an English translation of what’s being said. The app also has a lot of potential to compete with voice assistants like Siri and Google Assistant, which can only handle a limited number of languages.
Companies can use OpenAI products to build their own custom new chatbots, and some already do, and Microsoft isn’t alone. A few examples will be mentioned below.
