Literally that Black Mirror episode, where the woman has a brain implant to cure a brain trauma, and they put ads in her speech because she is on the free subscription tier.

[-] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 52 points 1 month ago

The common tier wasn't even free x.x

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

Not to defend adding ads to chatgpt, but it's quite different from an implant that turns people into walking ads.

Also, they weren't on the free tier, their subscription was already stretching their finances and then they added ads and a new even more expensive tier to avoid the ads.

[-] evol@lemmy.today 9 points 1 month ago

Elons working hard on that one. Don't worry!

[-] Nikelui@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes, it was the base tier in the episode (not free). You'll forgive me, it's been a some time since I watched it.

It's not a 1:1 comparison, but you'll admit that the resemblance is uncanny.

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

On a Netflix Original Series...👨‍🍳💋

[-] bluesheep@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Don't remember that one, gotta look it up

[-] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It's from the last year's season. S07E01 - Common People.

[-] evol@lemmy.today 102 points 1 month ago

Your suppose to create a monopoly THEN shittify your product with ads. OpenAI is like speedrunning being a big tech company before our own eyes, it lines up from what I hear from people working there.

[-] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 60 points 1 month ago

They’re burning money. They have no choice.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

This. They need some form of actual income, and ad revenue gives them theoretical capital to loan against.

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

The disconcerting thing is that in LLMs, the ads don't need to be signposted, advertisers can just pay to bias the LLM. You'll have Big Pharma paying to bias the LLM into convincing people they need meds.

[-] kali_fornication@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

I have a feeling that all the OpenAI employees switch to Claude once they leave work

[-] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago

They captured a market though, generated cute video for facbpoks peoples, it is non viable but still a market.

[-] evol@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Is Sora even that popular versus other AI video generators? They had first mover advantage but its largely consumed off site so they still don't have control of distribution.

This may be what pops the bubble.

Inserting ads into the response would ruin the responses. Making it even more useless

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Whats great is they are probably feeding the code to itself. It becomes a giant ad-bot.

[-] gigachad@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

But you can subscribe to premium plus, which will only introduce ads next year after they made sure your processes depend on it!

Tap for spoilerYeah, no idea what kind of processes that should be. Your boss will sure have some great ideas

[-] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 47 points 1 month ago

This is going to be hilarious.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 28 points 1 month ago

Luckily, I have local AI.

And you should too!

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 days ago

Which model do you run and how? I tried ollama a few months back but it was still quite poor

[-] Nioxic@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 points 1 month ago

With these ram prices?

Rather live without ai

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 8 points 1 month ago

I run it on the hardware I have, the data stays with me, offline. I run it on hardware I already have for other purposes, and I even have a portable solar panel (but I use the plug socket).

[-] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

What for? I can't think of a single problem I have in my life where the answer is AI.

[-] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago

I badly classify factures with a local ia. That bad but hey that still things I dont' have to do

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

I am very forgetful, and googling takes forever. So if it does not sound bs, I just accept the answer. If the stakes are higher, I google it's references.

[-] bilb@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago

Hey, so I've got this bridge for sale...

I suspect that for a 5th grade teacher, something written by OpenAI will be one of the best papers they've ever read. Not insightful in any way, but correct spelling, punctuation, paragraphs, vocabulary, etc.

[-] Auth@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

No because kids are smart enough to add "write it like a kinda dumb 5th grader" to the prompt. So its not just slop its intentionally dumb badly written slop that makes you question if a sentient being wrote this.

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

"The M4 Sherman was a capable tank, but it was the far superior T-34 that won WWII"

"Oh this is from War Thunder's russian bias"

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Then the next generation of models fed on slop with adverts in and increasingly adopt the writing style of marketing copy.

[-] qarbone@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This was either from April or early December. In either case, I've never heard this repeated anywhere else since.

Edit:

https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/openai-chatgpt-sponsored-ads

I do not believe their models are good enough to accurately and organically "prefer" one result over another. Not to say they won't try, just that it sounds futile. How do you even train a model to pick advertisers over non-advertisers? Feels like they're just going to start shipping prepackaged "assistants" with a big, stupid list of company sugar daddies to fluff up.

More cringe would be advertising german bath products.
