If the company cant convert the product into earnings it really doesnt matter what the product is. It can be a magic machine that turns water into wine. They still have to find people willing to pay for it.

If the world is not ready for fully scalable almost human tier intelligence then, being right at the wrong time is the same as being wrong.

Uptake is amazing, isn't ChatGPT the most downloaded and beat TikTok easily?

Also you don't have to make people pay. Facebook doesn't charge end users for its products and neither does Google for either search or Android.

its the most downloaded but they churn users quite a bit

So it's going to be full of advertising and will sell user days as the primary two ways it will be profitable?

I mean, that does sound very much like the future of our current timeline, unfortunately.
