Google is the new Open AI.
Open AI is the new Google. Guess who wants to shove advertisements into paying customers' face and take a % of their revenues for using their models to build products? Not Google.

Google's main revenue source (~ 75%) is advertising. They will absolutely try to shove in ads into their AI offerings. They simply don't have to do it this quickly.

But they haven't. Last time I checked, you don't get shoved ads into your face if you paid for the product.

That's true but OpenAI also isn't introducing ads to the Plus accounts as far as I'm aware.

The majority of people who use Google for AI encounter it at the top of an ad filled search engine.

A search engine which you leech for free, not pay and get ads shoved onto your face. The core argument here is getting ads into your face despite having paid for the product. And also, no one is forcing you to use Google when you have so many alternatives.

'Probably' isn't a good counter argument to Open AI's 'certainly'.

Don’t worry, Google is profiting off of your data one way or another lol
