@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Service I never touched is enshittifyingOh noes - Where else can I get my algorithmically-generated disinformation?! (I don't even have to) There are no other good options! (Mistral, Deepseek if I somehow did) :ablobcat_popcorn:

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Yep… I have to laugh at how the slop generators are supposedly going to revolutionise the world, boost creativity and make users rich… yet the people who actually created them are flailing about, monetising porn creation and putting in ads, anything to try and make any kind of profit themselves, instead of massive losses. Almost like all their hype and bullshit is just... hype and bullshit. 🤷♂️

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Better they do it now while actual search engines still exist

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales It might not burst like a bubble. But i believe this really marks the start of the end of easily accessible slob. Altman once said advertisement would be their “last resort” and for once I hope he’s right.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales when I saw them say the advertisers won't affect the output I just thought, 'yet'.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Funny thing: in Germany Amazon lost a lawsuit about ads suddenly showing up in movies. Users of Amazon Video/Prime suddenly hat ads in movies - and this was not allowed (see https://www.vzbv.de/urteile/urteil-gegen-amazon-einfuehrung-von-werbung-bei-prime-video-war-unzulaessig - German text). Sadly, this was only a thing against Amazon Germany - and we don't have ChatGPT Germany yet. Anyways, this is another glorious day to fight #ChatGPTSD before it grows even stronger. The best day to stop using this sloprot is today.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales I heard a story that 'the main reason' they do that is because ChatGPT at the moment 'is not profitable' and is actually losing money, it costs lot more than what it's earning ( and apparently kept alive only by 'investors/hype' ? ). So they have to start grabbing money where they can and that seems to be only in 2 ways : p0rn and ads.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Yes, that is probably one of their original goals.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales it doesn't have ads already? Never used it 😅 Disappointed in you, capitalism!

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Broke: Gen AI images with 6 fingers Woke: Gen AI with 6 obvious ads. I could get behind that. @oblomov@sociale.network

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales reminds me of a Black Mirror episode about ad-supported brain implants.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Don't just put in ads. Train the product placement into the model. I want people to know exactly which brand of glue they should put on their pizza.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Well, I mean if it's relavant? But does it call into question ChatGPT's credibility compared to Claude?

@starstorm_x1@floofy.tech 2026-01-18 16:53
@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales I admit, I'm concerned they'll actually listen to its users and drop the ads after a while. Look at what happened when its users complained about a newer model being inferior to the older one; they reverted

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales It’s going to be disinformation. Any criticism will be removed. Any made up facts you want will be there. Truth is dead.

@llamasoft_ox@toot.wales Oh, can you imagine ChatGPT with product placement? Come on Sam, all the great artists have done it, even the Mona Lisa was done on commission. (Although we know that Sam's own OpenAI account is impersonations of Scarlett Johansson and "Her" porn. God knows what product placement that results in.)
