- dude250711 22d agoWhat problem is Rufus solving? Assistant that cannot do shit.
- cmiles8 22d agoIt’s allowing Andy Jassy to have something to tell investors to fend off criticism that Amazon’s internal AI efforts fell way behind the market on his watch. That’s the primary “problem” it solves for Amazon. Other than that? Yes it’s total dog$hit.
- paxys 22d ago> Nobody wants this. Sure, but a billion people presumably do want to keep using ChatGPT for free.
- cmiles8 21d agoThat plan only works if they manage to drive Google et al out of business, and there’s zero evidence of that happening at this point. There’s no more ad $ coming to the table, just a battle for the same $. If anything, things like Google putting really good AI right in search is making OpenAI’s efforts increasingly a hopelessly uphill battle.
- paxys 21d agoAds follow eyeballs. If people are spending time on ChatGPT then why won’t advertisers pay for ads over there?
- geodel 21d agoWell, even payment is no guarantee that ads won't be injected into service. even these fucking movie theaters sho like 20-30 min of ads before showing movie people paid for.
- iso1631 22d agoNobody wants the kind of advertising we get. If they did it would be optional. There used to be optional ads. I used to pay money for adverts -- computer shopper and micromart in the 90s for example. There aren't now.
