Free GPT-4 chatbot in trouble, OpenAI threatens to sue its developer

GPT-4 is a language model released by OpenAI for the chat robot ChatGPT. It can generate various types of text based on user input, such as poetry, stories, codes, etc. However, to use GPT-4, users must pay a monthly fee of $20 (note: currently about 138 yuan).

However, one developer has found a way to use GPT-4 for free. He created a project called GPT4free and shared it with netizens through Github. This project can utilize the APIs of some paid websites, such as Quora and You.com, to indirectly call GPT-4 services. Users only need to enter a question on GPT4free's website and get answers from paid websites.

This approach caused dissatisfaction with OpenAI, which sent a letter to the developer asking him to delete the Github project within five days, otherwise legal action would be taken. OpenAI believes that the developers violated their copyrights and commercial interests.

However, the developer does not think he is at fault. He said that he did not directly connect to GPT-4's API, but only used some paid websites. He believes that OpenAI should look to those websites to solve problems, not him. He also said that he only provided some scripts and how others use them is their business and he takes no responsibility.

The developer also said that even if he deleted the Github project, it would be meaningless because his code has been widely spread on the Internet. He plans to move his chatbot to another domain and rename it "gf4". As of the time of publication by IT House, the Github project of GPT4free still exists.
