OpenAI Pauses New GPT-6 Astra Pro Subscriptions Amid High Demand, Adds Cloud Integrations
OpenAI has temporarily paused new subscriptions to its GPT-6 Astra 200 Pro plan due to unprecedented demand that strains its systems, according to product leader Thibault Sottiaux. Existing Pro users remain unaffected, and other plans and the API continue to operate normally. The company is working to increase capacity to meet demand. Additionally, OpenAI has integrated Dropbox, Box, and SharePoint into ChatGPT's library, enabling paid users to access and use files from these cloud services within ChatGPT workflows.
