Few open questions
- ads only on free version?
- why the need for ads at all if llms can literally get you to the exact product? push vs pull marketing
- will models be rlhf'd to align towards preferred products or would the advertisements run ads at the prompt level? (based on some dynamic opaque configuration)
my predictions
- yes
- i assume they are trying both ends but need to justify free tier someway
- i think there will be some type of commitment to not bias the model itself and keep it clean. maybe a separation? i'm also curious as to how they will ensure this during training when the user data itself would be biased towards past ads
- lanthissa 11mo agoads always start on only the free version, then either the free version has a minor fee that slowly gets ratcheted up over time or the paid version gets ads and theres a higher no ad tier version added.
- simianwords 11mo agoNot true. Spotify, YouTube, prime.
- array_key_first 11mo agoI wouldnt hope your breath on these. Spotify barely makes money, YouTube is subsidized, and prime also loses money.
- Adrig 11mo agoThere's also a regulatory component. No way hidden ads will be allowed in major markets like the EU. I could see a sponsored section in the middle of the reply where the LLM just tells of these vendors align with what the user is looking for
- simianwords 11mo agoYes definitely most likely thing to happen.
