Sure, to be expected since it's a free way to use GPT-4, but I'm not sure how Microsoft are hoping to monetize this popularity. I suppose they are going to work advertising into it somehow. I guess the Chat UI would allow for advertisements that are displayed for the duration of the chat, potentially very targeted ones (but don't want to creep users out by too closely mirroring what they are talking about), but OTOH not clear at all how much chat usage is going to be product/service related. Perhaps advertisers don't care - as long as they can put the ad in front of your eyes, they don't really care whether it's apropos of the moment or not.
