> The era of subsidization is over Of course it is. Returns are diminishing, AGI isn't happening with current techniques but it is good enough to sell, so it's time to monetize. I just got an email from OpenAI as well about ads in their free tier (I signed up once out of curiosity). | ||

Subsidization is not nearly over It's true AGI is 'not happening' but it doesn't matter. Demand for AI is explosive, sales are skyrocketing. We have another 5-8 years of this crazy investment stuff. Altman will step aside before they turn into a 'normal company'. Like they did at Uber. | ||
