Adverts on ChatGPT?

I'm not sure about this one... On the one hand, it's true that the tech is getting more powerful by the day, but it also kinda changes the vibe of these AI chatbots. Like, you'd think they're supposed to be super helpful and informative, not bombarded with ads all day

.
I get why OpenAI would wanna explore new revenue streams though - ChatGPT's gotten so popular, it's gotta make some dough somehow

... But the thing is, if you start getting ads on these AI platforms, I worry that you'll lose some of the magic. Like, when was the last time you had a deep convo with a chatbot without feeling like it was trying to sell you something?
It's also worth noting that if OpenAI does decide to go this route, they might need to rethink how they handle user data and all that jazz...

Not exactly sure what the endgame would be here, but I'm curious to see where they'll take it. Maybe we'll get some super cool ad-free tiers, or maybe it's just gonna be a mess?
