ChatGPT was free of ads for some three years before they began implementing advertising.
The addition of ads may be an issue for some people. We all have seen great platforms being affected by too many ads clogging up our experiences. However, I think this is a great way for the site to start making some money on top of their subscriptions.
What is important that such ads are placed on the platform and are respectful of the users rather Google’s approach. They need to leverage their huge user base so that the AI boom is sustainable and helps to revitalize cyberspace which has been under strain from all sorts of issues and stagnation in the ideas here.
I had been subscribed to ChatGPT’s cheapest tier, GO, and I began getting ads on my queries recently. Here is how these ads appear.
These ads appear at the end of query not above it. In comparison to the traditional search engines, this is less in your face and these ads relate to your actual questions here. I got this query when I am talking about AI generated images, which I use heavily on ChatGPT here.
I think that this is better than having every search page full of sponsored links while you are not able to get to your desired results here. Ads need to be more useful and help people save time so they purchase items that they actually want to have.
An interesting aspect to these ads is that you can ask ChatGPT about these ads that appear here. This is something that wasn’t available on the older search engines here. Now you can get better context as what those ads are.
What is important here is that these advertisements are not too obnoxious and are relevant to the queries.
