3 prediction markets price this story:
- Before 2027 — the market puts it at 14%, with $7k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if OpenAI raises the price of ChatGPT Pro or Plus between December 19, 2024, and January 1, 2027. The outcome is No if no such price increase occurs within that window. Readers often mistake the start date, which is fixed at December 19, 2024, rather than an earlier announcement or rumor.
- OpenAI / ChatGPT — the market puts it at 88%, with $1 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 15 Feb 2027. The market resolves to Yes if OpenAI or ChatGPT airs a qualifying advertisement during the official national 2027 Super Bowl broadcast. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the linked lawsuit for the resolution criteria, but only the specific ad placement matters.
- ChatGPT — the market puts it at 10%, with $2k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 31 Dec 2026. The market resolves to Yes if OpenAI holds the top-ranked large language model position on December 31, 2026. It resolves to No if OpenAI does not hold that rank on that date. Readers often mistake the resolution date for the announcement date of new features.
