They don’t care that much about what ChatGPT will do search. They care about the advertising users of ChatGPT won’t be seeing.

How exactly do you think chatgpt is going to get funded?

OpenAI just got a second round $10B investment from Microsoft, so that goes a ways ... They are selling API access to GPT for other companies to use however they like, and Microsoft has integrated Copilot (also GPT-based, fine-tuned for code generation) into their dev tools, and MIcrosoft is also integrating OpenAI's LLM tech into Bing. While OpenAI are also selling access to ChatGPT to end users, I doubt that's going to really be a focus for them or major source of revenue.

Yup, OpenAI expects to generate $200 million in revenue for 2023 and $1 billion for next year.

ChatGPT's a website and any website can show you ads. Of course, it has the same issue as Gmail where users aren't going to like ads being targeted based on what they say to it.
