It's a lot of money.

So my mind would be that they're going to have to sell ads to be able to make that profitable.

I just can't see how else they're going to do that.

And again, that leads me back to Google in that they have a lot of experience with ad platforms and serving, which I think is a lot harder than...

people give it credit for um you know it's been joked over the years about the google kind of ads platform but i think it's and a lot of people think stuff like you know their phones are listening to them um and it's actually just a testament to how good targeting is now with a lot of ads it's not like your phone is not on all the time at least for at least for ads uh you know listening to you but

You know, it's a testament to how good that predictive kind of analytics and all that remarketing stuff we can do is.

And open AI, again, are going to have to buy their way in terms of experts into that.

So I don't know what they're...

kind of reward mechanism will be.

And even if there will be one, um, because I think publishers, particularly in, in this era, so that is people that earn money through page views basically have been left high and dry.

I think, you know, you just had rug pulled, right there.

What is the, what is the benefit to them to producing content?

And I think that's a good question.

My hope is we'll see maybe a slight reversal of user behavior in terms of well-written, very humanized content will really increase in demand.

It sounds really silly, right?

When I do my LinkedIn posts, to begin with, I'll be using AI imagery.

This is cool, right?

I can just illustrate my point visually really quickly.

And after about three, four months, I just became sick of it.

And everyone's posting similar stuff.
