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 Deep Research Tutorial for High School Students

ChatGPT Deep Research

ChatGPT is changing the world of education, and I hope to be able to help make the process more usable for students specifically in the High School settings.

A new feature is available in the new versions of ChatGPT known as “Deep Research”. Basically, it makes ChatGPT spend lots of time looking through every source of information available to give you the best answer for you to do research on your topic.

Using this process requires that you are subscribed to ChatGPT Pro.

Step 1: Use the Deep Research button on the chat box in ChatGPT

Click on the plus sign on the chat box in ChatGPT.

Then scroll to the Deep research with the telescope icon and click on the button.

Step 2: Ask your question

The next step is to type out your question. In this case, I chose to ask about the Roman army under the first Roman Emperor, Augustus. It would be wise to make sure you clarify specifics.

ChatGPT Deep Research History Questions

ChatGPT will ask you what you to focus on. Choose a topic that is relevant to your research.

Step 3: Focus your research

I selected Recruitment and Training and the chatbot begins its research on various sources.

This process takes time and will take about 5 to 7 minutes depending on the topic. ChatGPT will show you what sources it using to conduct its research while the process is undergoing here.

Step 4: Check the results

ChatGPT will save you time. It will summarize many websites into a single response which will have hyperlink bubble located next to the regular text. Clicking these links will take to the websites so you can expand upon your research.

This tool will greatly help in research here.

Step 5: Integrate your research with original ideas

This is probably the hardest aspect of using ChatGPT here. Many students simply want to complete the homework without effort. This has been covered in publications multiple times. However, it is clear that the tool is here and its time to use to help reinvigorate an often-stale teaching profession. Students need to enhance their thinking and not let a machine replace it.

The companies that make up the AI bubble

Business of Apps has gotten into the geography of AI businesses. The image above is the result of their efforts.

What type of AI use will make it more that chat windows?

In my opinion, the creative side of AI is probably the most important here. While productivity is important, it is art that will make these AI tools truly powerful. It needs to be able to create images of any type quickly and without issues. The smartphone got popular with people because of the camera not because of the productivity apps; that appeal came later not before.

It is because of the camera that the iPhone was able to get smartphone to become more than an adjacent object and into a digital swiss army knife. Such a phrase was used early on and I can understand why. Unlike the flip phones and the older phones, the smartphone is usable in many situations. Mobile banking is useful for many age groups and the smartphone removes the friction which existed on other types of phones and gives you an “app” to do look at your bank account which is important in this age.

Music is tricky area with AI. I have not used Suno as much here but its already seemingly getting on the Billboard charts. If you had asked average people that computer made music would have gotten their attention, they would have been skeptical. We have had sites for many years serving up tracks on the internet and before that in the music stores.

Music is another area where AI usage could really become embedded in our society just as the car or electricity. I do not believe AI will become a “microwave” where it will be there and used for many things but not transform our culture. It will not just be addition to our gadgets; it is going to replace many gadgets we have. In the realm of music, it seems that we have a greater variety of genres and experimentation than ever before in my opinion.

Suno is getting sued by many record label companies. Hopefully, they do not end up like Napster and are able to survive. I think the concept behind AI music is great and can really open people to different genres and make the creative process more interesting and enliven it with some iconoclastic energy which has been lacking for many years in our age.

Creativity I think is going to be what makes AI more mainstream. Productivity is not what gets views on YouTube; the views come from youtubers who make people imagine and cultivate their minds. AI is going to change the nature of creativity and I am confident it will not replace it but augment it. We may not have cybernetic implants yet but this is virtual kind and its truly remarkable to have these tools to revive our civilization.
