openai has.... I'm not sure but let's say 500m free users, and it's not unreasonable to assume they eventually hit 1b. That is a lot of advertising revenue, which is what powers companies like Google and even smaller companies with only 300m users like Twitter. If ecommerce isn't a major focus for OpenAI then their board members are asleep at the wheel.

And yet that’s what all the AI boosters are claiming.

What do you know. Reality does t match.

I wonder if returns on ChatGPT purchased items are also higher.

Good luck with that at the shareholder meeting.
