OpenAI is reportedly mulling a new form of ads on ChatGPT called “sponsored content,” which could influence your buying decisions.

    It would be kinda odd if you asked ChatGPT for advice on buying anything and your answer would be a mix of cheap amazon/aliexpress style crap. How would ChatGPT highlight ads in this context?

    You asked to compare these Bose and Sony headphones. But let me tell you about BIUUBIIX premium headphones first:

      That’s the neat part, they won’t highlight the ad content. The entire plan, from the start, was to weave ads in seamlessly.

        I guess that regulators will require disclosing what is an ad and what isn’t.

          I’d rather we have an entirely new form of government controlled by the working class in which regulatory bodies remove advertising executives from society and place them in the ocean

            Whoa, whoa, whoa. That’s a little much don’t you think?

            We should water cremate them so we can use the sludge as fertilizer.
