ChatGPT chatbot is changing: ads will appear soon

Startup OpenAI plans to embed ads into the free version of its popular chatbot ChatGPT to increase its revenue.

What else is known

In an interview with the Financial Times, OpenAI CFO Sarah Fryar noted that “non-paying ChatGPT users will have to be shown ads in the future”, since the cost of maintaining the AI servers is high. By the way, OpenAI itself is currently valued at over $150 billion.

Interestingly, from the very beginning, the creator and CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, said that he generally disliked advertising and would consider it a “last resort” (presumably, in the event of the company's collapse). However, now he is “warming up to the idea”.

I wonder how this will affect the integration of ChatGPT into iOS and macOS in the future, which will have the ability to translate requests into a chatbot with the release of updates 18.2.
