Well it depends on the use cases.

I would imagine that search will be as profitable as it has always been (the most profitable software industry in the world!), specialised tools will be profitable as they will be able to price accordingly.

I think where some will fail is trying to offer free services funded by advertising, I have a feeling ad revenue will not be significant enough to offset operational costs, but I could be proven wrong on that, obviously it depends on how GPU intensive each operation is etc!

Oh and thanks on the banner...created by AI (or at least the 4 images are and my Profile pic) 🤣💗

yeah, I figured ^^.

This sector requires so much investments. It does not seem that "open" to everyone.

You're probably right on the Ads. This model will have to change.
