>The conversational UI is a lot less convenient to include advertisements

How so? Surely people are going to ask this thing for product recommendations, just recommend your sponsors.

This moves the advertisement opportunity to the chat owner. If you want to use chat (+api) to book a table at a restaurant, then the reservation-api company loses a change to advertise to you vs. if you used a dedicated reservation-web-app.

Oh I see what you mean, yes. The reservation api company will have to get money through other means (either from the user via OpenAI or from the restaurant).

Honestly I see this as a positive change, I'd rather be the customer than the product.

I’m already seeing advertisements in New Bing.
