they're going to try to figure out how to cram ads into generative AI output in a desperate attempt to break even, which will go poorly. either that or alienate most of their users by removing the free tiers. it's not looking good Mr Altman!
Im guessing the plan is to make people dependant on it then remove free tiers. Or there isn't a plan at all bc they're stupid. equally likely options.
$20/mo is bankrupting OpenAI and even their $200/mo professional model isn't cutting it
How did I not think of the ad thing before? Of course that's what they'll do.
your post was so good i actively scrolled away to not get a random ad
Ha, that's ridiculous, they'll obviously be doing both at the same time. Charging more, for even more useless output crammed full of ads.
