I imagine there’ll be open source versions of ChatGPT in the near future given it’s wild popularity, I’ll probably just use that for personal projects, and in a business setting I would just have a dedicated model of that open source version running. .004 cents per 1000 tokens (or much less) is a hell of an ask if you’re doing anything where users generate tokens

Open Source is only free when it's running off your own computer. Otherwise, if it's running off some infrastructure, then that has to be paid for - typically with ads or something like that.

Usually inference on hugging face for large models is free for individuals making a reasonable amount of API calls as part of their offerings, and I assume an open source version of this would be on there. I realize that it costs money.
