Google’s Gemini AI Plus Emerges as ChatGPT Go Rival with Affordable Pricing
Google has introduced a new competitor to ChatGPT Go: Gemini AI Plus, aiming to attract more users with its budget-friendly plan. With AI tools becoming increasingly mainstream, top-tier features often come with high price tags—but tech giants are now opening up access through affordable monthly subscriptions.
Running AI can be expensive, and plans priced around Rs 2,000 per month can limit adoption. Some companies are even offering “Pro” features for free. For now, Gemini AI Plus has launched in Indonesia, but expansion to other regions—including India—seems likely.
