It all seems a bit overly complicated to me. TikTok pretty much went straight to a self-serve platform and basically had immediate success. I would think if OpenAI did something similar there would be no shortage of advertisers wanting to spend money.

on tiktok you are not paying for ad inventory, which on that platform sucks, you're paying $10m+ to tip the scales in the algorithm towards organic content about your brand

		we don't know i assume the 22 year olds working 16h days at openai sincerely think people pay for ads on tiktok, and shitty low converting ads is why tiktok makes tons of money, and they sincerely think the solution to their lack of knowledge is delegating their core business to a DSP no one has ever heard of
