🌐OpenAI is considering the possibility of introducing advertising in ChatGPT
Аs revealed by the company’s Chief Financial Officer, Sara Friar, in an interview with *Financial Times*.
Advertising may appear in the free version of the service to partially cover the costs of its maintenance and development.🔅
OpenAI already has experienced specialists in this area: Chief Product Officer Kevin Weil previously worked at Instagram, and Shivakumar Venkataraman, formerly of Google’s advertising division, recently joined the team.😎
📊Currently, the company generates revenue from the premium version of ChatGPT and its API, which allows third-party developers to integrate language models into applications. Free users face certain limitations, such as reduced access to GPT-4 after reaching a specific query limit.
📌While implementing advertising is not yet a priority, this step could play a significant role in ensuring OpenAI’s financial stability.
