Cable TV was once ad free. So was Netflix. Companies just can’t help themselves.
replyNetflix is still ad free for the right price. It's not like companies have some fetish for advertising specifically, it's that it brings in money. Often more money than a user would be willing to pay for the service.
reply> Every time this comes up there are comments assuming that ads are being injected into the normal plans
replyNo. The distinction between the unpaid vs. cheap vs. expensive plans is irrelevant here.
The main controversial point about this topic is to include ads in the output of an LLM-backed AI tool responses. It does not matter at all in which tier it occurs.
The discussion is about the fact that it occurs in the first place.
Would require a lot of training to implement ads blended into convo and not have it be too obvious/ eff up the results?
replyUntil next quarter earnings, when ads become a feature in more expensive plans.
