> I don't know if they would or would not serve ads in the future
There are 2 possible futures:
1) You are served ads based on your interactions
2) You pay a subscription fee equal to the amount they would have otherwise earned on ads
I highly doubt #2 will happen. (See: Facebook, Google, twitter, et al)
Let’s not fool ourselves. We will be monetized.
And model quality will be degraded to maximize profits when competition in the LLM space dies down.
It’s not a pretty future. I wouldn’t be surprised if right now is the peak of model quality, etc. Peak competition, everyone is trying to be the best. That won’t continue forever. Eventually everyone will pivot their priority towards monetization rather than model quality/training.
Hopefully I’m wrong.
