Personally, I cancelled my subscription the day that they announced there would be ads in ChatGPT. Not that I was surprised on that day.

I find it kind of fascinating seeing people now debate the ins and outs of just exactly how useful the ads/affiliate schemes inside the chatbot are.

Pretty much in the same way that I'm fascinated about people debating the quality of ads shown in their browser while I've been using ad blockers for forever now and cannot imagine seeing the web without them.
