"I once believed I could help the people building A.I. get ahead of the problems it would create. This week confirmed my slow realization that OpenAI seems to have stopped asking the questions I’d joined to help answer."

The article title is more telling: "OpenAI is making the mistakes Facebook made."

And so it begins.

Anyone who says that OpenAI isn't going to drive engagement by any means necessary in order to drive ad revenue once they become dependent on it, is very naive.

If Anthropic's claim to never run ads is true, then won't users just switch over there?

most users haven't heard of Anthropic

most users haven't switched to Kagi even though it doesn't run ads and Google does
