Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States of America. He was best known for being “Honest Abe”, writing the Emancipation Proclamation, and playing RAID: Shadow Legends, an immersive online experience with everything you’d expect from a brand new RPG title. It’s got an amazing storyline, awesome 3D graphics, giant boss fights, PVP battles, and hundreds of never before seen champions to collect and customize.
Didn’t Sam Altman say that ads would be a last resort?
This simply means they’ve finally run out of money. If that doesn’t help, Apple or Microsoft will just end up buying OpenAI for pennies.
I suppose that means they’ve reached it.
enshittification personified
Those ads are really going to annoy me when I never start using that chat shit.
Crazy, I thought they’d wait until the IPO before they start going to the “bleed the users like penned cattle” phase of enshittification. They must need money sooner than they thought.
They are speedrunning capitalism.
Next is to pass the corpses of the major IP holding companies around and sue each other and everyone for patents until nobody can afford lawyers anymore.
That’s how close we are before the bubble bursts. Plus they can never go public because they’d have to publish their numbers. A minus followed by several commas will definitely burst that bubble.
One can only hope, I can’t wait to see it all burn. All those shitty AI companies can go to hell as far as I’m concerned, they add no value to my life whatsoever.
Or at least a product worth paying for.
they do. desperately. it’s been stated for awhile now.
Let the enshittification begin!
That’s the neat part — AI comes pre-enshittified!
I’m sure Volkswagen and Hugo Boss will appreciate the research their ads are put next to.
Wow I did not expect to see actual ads. The answers could just be commercially manipulative instead.
They’re explicitly differentiating from modifying the search results as a reason why the ads are transparent. I figure in one year they’ll start to insert ads into the answer proper with a disclaimer, and then next fully integrate it.
This is what I’m hoping for. That way, when the dumbest person we know copies content from ChatGPT, we’ll see the ads too and know they’re a dumbass!
“Look it says right here that trump never raped anyone because his penis is so large from taking these special dick pills. I’m gonna get me some so I can have a big dick too!”
Why not both?
OpenAI: “Hire that Lemmy user now!”
Nah, just scrape his comment history and dump it into the machine.
That would just not bring in enough. Remember that this is their last resort to prevent collapse.
