How to save money with AI in 2026: Switch to ChatGPT Go

What is ChatGPT Go?

I have made the choice to switch to ChatGPT Go. This is a new tier in the subscription model in here. It is a basic tier above the free usage of the AI chatbot here. It only costs $8 dollars a month.

ChatGPT has been go to LLM since 2023 alongside Microsoft’s Copilot. However, Google was going to catch up at some point here. While they had some stumbles with earlier versions of their AI models, Gemini is really proficient at creating something specific to my interests, photorealistic images. While many people may be tiring of photorealism in movies or video games, I love seeing how an alternate world or historical age would appear through some tweaks in the prompts.

ChatGPT Pro is $20 dollars a month and I think it has more value than a Netflix subscription. Netflix is just stuffing their platform with games and podcasts instead of filmed shows and movies. ChatGPT can be applied to many areas of productivity and entertainment here.

There has been some criticism of ChatGPT in recent weeks. Some say that the site is burning money. Here is my view: Every internet site goes through this phase. The main difference is that ChatGPT has gone from making 3 billion dollars to making 20 billion dollars in 2025.

The company is requiring some very heavy investments in capital, but I believe that they are on the right track in here.

Who should be using ChatGPT Go?

AI tools are some of the greatest ways to be productive and creative at the same time here. However, these tools are not cheap, and we need to be finding more economical ways to use these groundbreaking tools without spending too much here. This makes sense to anyone who wishes to save money in order to balance their budgets here.

Advertising is a necessary part of growing an internet business now. Open AI has to be careful about how it implements ads into this tier of their services. I do not want to be like how Netflix is shoving their ads into their shows. It needs to be subtle and not in your face here. The approach that they seem to be taking is nice and I appreciate it. They need to make it relevant to the users of their accounts. There have been too many ads that are basically irrelevant to my usage in cyberspace.

ChatGPT is approaching 800 billion weekly users. This is an incredible market to use for monetization and for the stabilization of the AI bubble. However, they need to make sure that they produce a product which people want to use. They need it to be useful for their everyday lives in both entertainment and productivity.

ChatGPT Pro is simply too expensive for me right now and ChatGPT Go is prefect for my usage. Having more affordable options to use AI is great for us.

This tool has changed the economy and the world and now its time to find the best way to use it for the betterment of our age.

ChatGPT is getting better at making images efficiently. However, Gemini is still better at making photorealistic images, but the gap is not as big as it once was.

Gemini’s ability to recreate reality will be very important when it comes to history education. The ability to create photorealistic depictions of pre-photographic eras is going to change the teaching profession here. We will now be able to go beyond looking at photographs on Google or Bing Image search.

People on the internet have been quite lazy in recent years, and human created content needs people to go outside and actually photograph things and also make drawings. However, we are not seeing that, so Gemini is giving us the next best thing here.

The image above shows us the power of Google Gemini here. Images can now give us the ability to recreate social relations and see clothes and architecture across the ages.

The days of Dalle-3 making mistakes are now in the past.

Considering it was only really a couple years ago, and we now have photorealistic images of historical ages.

Instead of using static textbooks, we now breathe life into these textbooks with AI.

Many establishment people may not like having this happen. These institutions have ossified and are unwilling to change.

Education now has another chance to change. This change will make history education more accessible but also increase thinking about other cultures and history of social class in other eras.

People should try to embrace it rather than being so defensive about it. In my experience, High School was a real bore with teachers in front of the smartboard but not using it. Students have not been trained by parents and their community to truly care about their education beyond the grades. With LLMs we now have the ability to change that here.

Education can now truly become interactive and intriguing to students.

Amazon Rufus is changing shopping on Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday is here, and it is in many ways bigger than Black Friday in some ways. In the past, Black Friday and the days before Christmas used to hog all the attention. Now, with Amazon’s dominance in ecommerce, Cyber Week and Cyber Monday have become more important than the shopping in the physical stores. This was a slow process but it really began with the Pandemic when people got more used to shopping online.

People were already having these habits before the pandemic, but Amazon and many ecommerce shops were able to fulfill a need for many consumers.

Amazon Rufus along with other shopping chatbots are changing the way we shop and leading to higher sales. Companies need to take advantage of generative AI. Most chatbots in the past were only really good at specific questions. The new generation of generative AI is helping to make shopping more precise and personal in a way the old model of searching and scrolling was unable to accomplish here.

Shopping AI is truly a big change for shoppers.

  1. They can now check prices month to month. This was only available on select sites, not its more holistic and you type in about any product without old style searching here.
  2. There is more of a move towards frictionless commerce. Shoppers can spend more time on the quality of the product instead of going through search bars and inconsistent search engines.
  3. Customers are able to Auto-Buy based on price changes, allowing for people to spend more time on other aspects of their holidays.
  4. Customers are saving time shopping.
  5. Shops now have to focus on quality not just getting on search results on the sites.

Many business owners are now seeing that Search Engine Optimization on Amazon and other search sites has to have an element of quality in your product.

Customer Reviews are now more important than before. As Rufus is collecting these reviews to make a summary, you need to make sure that your products are reviewing well now. Whereas before customers may not scroll to see reviews, they will see them in the summaries.

Quality matters not just gaming the SEO game.

I hope that stores realize the important power of shopping AI and make the shopping experience more enjoyable.
