Everything devolves into ADs eventually. Why would productized LLMs be any different?

I didn't say they wouldn't, I'm more skeptical about whether it's a sustainable business model. I mean sure gas stations and airports have ads, but nobody gives you gas or airfare in exchange for watching ads. It's a fraction of the revenue needed.

My point is that someone starting an airline can't get away with hopes and dreams about making bank on ads.
