Summary from the TLDR newsletter

OpenAI employees have reportedly started discussions on different ways to prioritize sponsored information in ChatGPT. The company is considering giving priority placement to sponsored results when users are clearly talking about buying a product, showing ads based on user information, or a sponsored sidebar that shows ads relevant to the conversation. OpenAI is wary about turning off users, as they might not trust a chatbot that injects ads into sensitive conversations. The pressure to increase revenue is building on OpenAI, which signed a flurry of massive deals this year that it will have to pay for.
