OpenAI moves from AGI chat to ChatGPT API version, to applause from developers

Just three months after the launch of tech-generating superstar ChatGPT, and just days after publishing a blog post about its Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) "plans", OpenAI yesterday released its APIs ChatGPT and Whisper. APIs make it easy to integrate ChatGPT into various applications.

According to the blog post, the APIs give developers "access to advanced language (not just chat!) and text-to-speech capabilities." Additionally, thanks to "system-wide optimizations", OpenAI said it has achieved a 90% cost reduction for ChatGPT since December and passes those savings on to API users.
