@zhitzig Using users private data is scary enough. Hopefully implicit ads won’t be shipped. Imagine showing only sponsored drugs when the user is asking for a treatment. I tested a simple PoC using GPT APIs, which kinda works, but scary. (code is open sourced) blog.runzbuzz.com/posts/ai-ad-ga…

I resigned from OpenAI on Monday. The same day, they started testing ads in ChatGPT. OpenAI has the most detailed record of private human thought ever assembled. Can we trust them to resist the tidal forces pushing them to abuse it? I wrote about better options for @nytopinion

@ylecun @ErenChenAI Curious how do you even manage your time 😱 … this seems too much .. do you have some tips?

@ErenChenAI Over 30 papers detailing progress towards solutions in 2025 alone: scholar.google.com/citations?hl=e… If you're lazy, just look at this: ai.meta.com/vjepa/ How's that for "no longer offering solutions"?

Yann LeCun has entered a stage where he is only making judgements but no longer offers solutions. I would like to ask him how he think these challenges can be tackled and move the problems forward, not just criticize it.

@tunguz Sell a “standing tomb experience” and throw in some decoration 😜

Myth #1: You have to be cited by authoritative websites Myth #2: Self-promotion is useless. Myth #3: Blogs are irrelevant to AI search. Myth #4: Listicles have no effect on brand visibility. Myth #5: AI search results are dominated by older content. blog.runzbuzz.com/posts/top5-geo…

Showing in ChatGPT results? Here are the 5 myths busted according to Ahrefs research.

How Ads might be served in AI assistances? One possibility is via injecting sponsored brands and products into the responses. #AI #Ads linkedin.com/posts/runzbuzz…

Top 5 Misconceptions about SEO and GEO: 1. AI search only return results the LLM was trained on. 2. GEO is just SEO. 3. New content needs months to rank in Google. 4. EEAT is used to rank pages. 5. Duplicate content is penalized. blog.runzbuzz.com/posts/top5-geo… #GEO #SEO #myths

How Ads might join the AI party? maybe via AI Ad Gateway. Here is a proof of concept written in python on how this might be achieved. #aiadgateway #LLMs #aigateway blog.runzbuzz.com/posts/ai-ad-ga…

AI is going for chatGPT, Gemini, and other AI assistants? I suspect that they would do so using some variation of AI Ad Gateway #aiadgateway #LLMs #aigateway @runzbuzz/how-ads-might-join-the-ai-assistants-party-bb7dac79d1c0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@runzbuzz/how-…

@rasmalai COBOL

@tunguz I ate an entire apple pie?

OK, now I'm hungry.

If showing in AI search is important for your brand, what are you doing in that regard?

@KevinSzabo14 Ya it is 😉

I'm going to say it: Entrepreneurship is harder than a 9-5 Change my mind.

@oprydai engineers and artists make hard problems look effortless.

As I suspected a few weeks back, chatGPT seems to be going for the Advertisements route. The question is not whether they are going to do it, but how. blog.runzbuzz.com/posts/ai-ad-ga…

@RudyReaper @giffboake @btibor91 Exactly, the cost is too high at the moment.

@giffboake @btibor91 You can't fund AI with subscriptions. It's not sustainable

OpenAI has imported approximately 630 former Meta employees representing about 20% of its roughly 3,000 staff according to LinkedIn data analyzed by The Information, with OpenAI's Slack having a channel just for former Meta employees according to a current employee and many holding major leadership roles including CEO of applications Fidji Simo The company is considering whether ChatGPT could show ads based on its memory or the information it remembers about users according to a current employee, with focus groups revealing that some users already think ChatGPT has ads and some OpenAI staff using that finding to argue for adding advertising Sam Altman has shifted his stance from calling ads a "last resort" and "uniquely unsettling" as recently as last May to saying he "finds ads somewhat distasteful but not a nonstarter" in a podcast this month, while CEO of applications Fidji Simo said in a companywide meeting in recent weeks that OpenAI was looking at advertising and how it could benefit users according to two current employees

@sudoingX @btibor91 They might even inject ads into the responses, so even APIs will be sponsored.

@btibor91 "Ads based on memory of user data" This is the API dependency endgame. Free → Subscription → Ads → Whatever monetization comes next When you don't own the infrastructure, you don't control the business model changes. Local models don't have a CFO to please.
