OpenAI Is Also Looking at Ads
OpenAI is discussing plans to introduce advertising to its artificial intelligence products, as the ChatGPT maker seeks new revenue sources as it restructures as a for-profit company.
Sarah Friar, chief financial officer at OpenAI, told the Financial Times in an interview that the $150bn AI start-up was weighing up an ads model, adding that it planned to be “thoughtful about when and where we implement them [ads]”.
It is hard to think a $150Bn company needs ads to make a profit. Would have thought somebody asked them how are they going to be profitable, at least.
