I used to be a skeptic. Chat GPT is awesome. Similar to Google, it's become a staple of my everyday life, like writing, or composing latex, or even doing math. I cannot imagine not having it without losing productivity. Is the business model sustainable? Probably not; I already see some signs of throttling in an attempt to cut costs, like if you overuse computation for math. Just the ability to render the latex from wolfram alpha is great. Writing latex used to be such a chore.
You can get pretty much all the benefits, if you know how to apply a little bit of elbow grease, from open source models at this point so even if the business model doesnt work, this is a technology that we all have now which is great.

there are so many competing language models and companies now that if any one of them fail there will be others
