It's interesting to contrast this take with the opinions expressed on an earlier thread about OpenAI's moat (or lack thereof).

Several people pointed to Google Search as an example of "user count as moat", and an explanation of its continued dominance despite a results page dominated by "sponsored" results.

Presumably the same reasoning would apply here.

Assuming chatgpt has moat, what kind of moat would apply that it is so crucial that it won't allow people to move away from it?

OP's point is the same can be said about Google (search).

		the value add of google search is just not that high that people are willing to pay for it. whereas its different for llm's. same as for youtube, netflix and spotify.
