Whatever LLM search stuff comes along will only be free as long as it brings in ad revenue. Which involves making the models fundamentally worse most likely. Or they'll use it to collect personal data. Probably both.
Computationally, GPT is wildly expensive. This idea people have that it's gonna be used all over the place for all sorts of tiny tasks, as if it's just another REST API, is nuts. Unless something fundamentally new comes along that makes these models much cheaper, adoption is likely going to end up much more limited than people expect. Or siloed off into expensive business-facing products.
