ChatGPT API Update as of 03/06/2023

OpenAI Logo

Starting today, you can build apps and products with our new ChatGPT and Whisper APIs. You can read more about the APIs and early partners’ use cases here.

ChatGPT API
The new Chat API calls gpt-3.5-turbo, the same model used in the ChatGPT product. It’s also our best model for many non-chat use cases; we’ve seen early testers migrate from text-davinci-003 to gpt-3.5-turbo with only a small amount of adjustment needed to their prompts. Learn more about the Chat API in our documentation.

Pricing
It’s priced at $0.002 per 1K tokens, which is 10x cheaper than the existing GPT-3.5 models.

Model updates
We are constantly improving our Chat models, and want to make these improvements available to developers as well. Developers who use the gpt-3.5-turbo model will always get our recommended stable model, while still having the flexibility to opt for a specific model version.

For example, today we’re releasing “gpt-3.5-turbo-0301”, which will be supported through at least June 1st, and we’ll update gpt-3.5-turbo to a new stable release in April. The models page will provide switchover updates.

Whisper API

We’ve been thrilled to see the community response to Whisper, the speech-to-text model we open-sourced in September 2022. Starting today, the large-v2 model is available through our API as whisper-1 – making it the fastest, cheapest, and most convenient way to use the model. Learn more about the Whisper API in the documentation.

Pricing
The API is priced at $0.006 / minute, rounded up to the nearest second.

Changes in our policies and how we use your data
Over the past six months, we’ve been collecting feedback from our API customers to understand how we can better serve them. We’ve made a number of concrete changes, such as**:**

  • Data submitted through the API is no longer used for model training or other service improvements, unless you explicitly opt in
  • Implementing a default 30-day data retention policy for API users, with options for shorter retention windows depending on user needs
  • Removing our pre-launch review – unlocked by improving our automated monitoring
  • Simplifying our Terms of Service and Usage Policies, including terms around data ownership: users own the input and output of the models

Check out what our early partners like Snap, Shopify, and Instacart have built with the new APIs – and start building next-generation apps powered by ChatGPT & Whisper today.
