> you’ll also be able to earn money based on how many people are using your GPT

So how does that work? Are they showing ads? (Narrator: its always ads) Is this the new ad-sense and search engine replacement? Its not SEO anymore, its custom GPTs.

It's probably a revenue share of the API usage fees that result from usage of the custom model.
That doesn’t track. I develop a custom model by paying them $x/month and they give me a discount based on usage? If somehow my new custom gpt goes viral and gets lots of usage I don’t see how that is connected with more money, if that is their intent. Its not really clear how this is a store or how money is changing hands here.

They're charging everyone using your model, per API call made.

They write you a check for X% of that resulting revenue.
