While not explicitly about your chosen tool chain, monetizing user data is absolutely going to happen in the LLM space.

While there may be some holdouts, Wall Street is already questioning the payback and as some big players are over promising on things that they will most likely never be able to deliver on, investors will start to pressure for any revenue stream.

As even subscription services breach the trust of their users, there is little leverage to hold that model today and deflect activest investors etc...

It is totally possible that AI just isn't monetizable and that they can't figure out a way to suck valuable user data out of it and resell it for profit. In that case, we have another dot-com bust where all the blow-hards and made-up-business-plans go bust and we end up with some decent tech that works for people for a decade or so before someone figures out how to turn it into garbage to make a few cents.
