Why do you think it would take so long to throw an ad system on ChatGPT?
Personally, if I could buy OpenAI stock at 100B market cap right now, I would back up the truck.
- riffraff 2y agoadding ads is easy, adding ads that work is not. Google can easily monetize a search for "dentist in $city" where your intent is to spend money, OpenAI would have to monetize "sum up this email" where money is not involved at all.
