How would the billing work for this? So much of advertising technology is tracking for the purposes of attribution.

How does openAI know what to charge for a particular product and category? How do I know if my money was well spent to boost my product in that category?

I don’t think you’re wrong! I’m just curious about how the new pricing models will work.

This isn’t a necessary condition for an ad to exist. When companies pay for their name on a sports stadium, they use various proxies to tell whether their name recognition goes up, but by and large you just don’t know if it’s worth it.

Individually constructed models serving selected poisoned datasets. No different to adwords.

If company bid is highest, customer is in selected demographic, topic is appropriate - answer query using biased model.

It would be trivial to make a poisoned model that always rates the best duvet as DuvetCompany001 in all related queries for example. Then simply charge per impression.
