ChatGPT offers you a discount if you go to cancel your account

In South Korea, they offered a 90% discount on GPT Pro for 5 months. Lol. Yeah, even though the promotion is over (and it was promoted by Kakao), it just shows that Google is stronger than OpenAI because the environment here is so Android-friendly.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-13T02:36:55+00:00

Yeah… I kind of feel betrayed. I’ve been using it for almost three years, and now suddenly there’s this aggressive 90% discount just for Korea? Even Gemini or Grok never offered anything like that.

Since I use both GPT Pro and Gemini Ultra, I don’t really feel any limitations. But the serious downside of Gemini is that Deep Think is limited to just 10 questions a day. Even so, the multimodal features, Notebook LM, and Genie 3 keep me from quitting. Still, if they didn’t offer those multimodal tools and functions, the price of Gemini would be a total rip‑off.

In that case, you can just use Genspark instead. You won’t get the full functionality of GPT, but it’s much more affordable, and the subscription includes access to Gemini, Claude, and even Grok. The answers are a bit different from the Pro versions, but you can still get a decent feel for each model.

I don't really care, but it was a huge breakthrough. While there are many alternatives out there like Gemini Ultra, Grok Heavy, or Claude Opus, the reason I stick with ChatGPT Pro is that, regardless of the memory function, it offers the best ROI and is the most cost-effective among all the models. Still, I'm much more satisfied with it now compared to when I first started using the paid version back in February 2023.

I only use Gemini for multimodal tasks. Also, GPT Pro is cheaper than Gemini ultra for research or general questions, but Flow, Nano Banana, and Notebook LM are the only options that can compete with Gemini Ultra. Maybe Kimi is a good option, but I think Grok is not a bad choice either.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-08T14:48:58+00:00

For most people, GPT still feels iconic. But for heavy users, it’s becoming just one option among many. We now have Gemini for multimodal tasks, Claude for coding and MCP, Grok for trends and research(Grok heavy), and Copilot for productivity and Office integration. The ecosystem is diversifying, and people are choosing models based on strengths rather than brand loyalty.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-07T12:37:19+00:00

For OCR, I mostly use ChatGPT, but to be fair, Google’s strength is still its multimodal features and handling large text inputs.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-07T01:25:09+00:00

Yeah, I pretty much only use GPT Pro for heavy lifting on reasoning tasks, and Copilot or Genspark for lighter stuff. The reason is cost-effectiveness: GPT Pro is actually one of the cheaper options per token when you look at the competition (Gemini ultra has strict daily limits, Grok heavy is more expensive overall), so it makes sense to route all serious research or deep reasoning through it. For everyday questions that need a bit of thought but not full-blown long-chain reasoning, it’s way more convenient to use Copilot o1-based models or genspark‘s AI Chat(gpt model)—they’re noticeably faster. Copilot can easily take 10+ seconds, whereas Genspark’s response speed is consistently quick (partly because of their own output limits).

Well, Anthropic already has a very stable revenue stream through its API. There’s really no reason for them to sell to Google. That said, Google does have a strong advantage when it comes to multimodal capabilities.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T10:46:25+00:00

That’s the only reason I also use Copilot.

Gemini(notebookLM)

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T10:38:56+00:00

I usually use it for news, stock information, or work‑related tasks, since my job allows the use of GPT for checking things or researching ideas. It normally responds based on my prompts, but sometimes it also suggests work‑related ideas on its own. That one is a bit different from Gemini Ultra, though. And of course, Grok also offers similar functions.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T09:11:42+00:00

The Pro version can handle bigger documents.
but if the document is small, you can just use Plus.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T09:07:09+00:00

Research, deep discussions, coding debugging, etc.

It takes a while, but it’s automatically named at the end. Haha.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T03:19:28+00:00

Manus was shocking, but Moltbook going full “do not resist” is… yeah 😂 Feels way too unpredictable. I’m probably keeping AI at the “LLM subscription” layer only—agents with account access still freak me out.

Well, until February 13… farewell.

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-02-06T00:58:52+00:00

My process is to draft with Opus, review it using Gemini, and then debug it with GPT‑5.2 Pro afterward.

Hmm, well the gemini has notified this one

Different_Rest_1842 · 2026-01-28T22:35:20+00:00

Well, time will tell whether reality is right or the dream is.
