I wonder how much they're projecting to spend on this? Or maybe they're prepared to eat a loss on this just to stay relevant in the face of Bing/Kagi/OpenAI?

Results from these models are orders of magnitude more expensive than traditional search. Maybe they have some benefits of scale where they can cache and serve up the same summaries to many people?

I use the "summarize everything" extension that uses my OpenAI key, so it costs me a fraction of a penny any time I summarize something. Subsidizing something like this at scale would be pretty dumb.
