> I picked it because ChatGPT recommended it (yes, really)
From the moment ChatGPT become a public thing, it has been obvious to me some marketer somewhere is uncontrollably salivating at the thought of introducing “native advertising” into LLMs and that it’s only a matter of time until it happens. That is, if it’s not happening already. I would be very much surprised if there weren’t already tons of people trying SEO and prompt injection techniques to do exactly that.
But what really disappoints me and leaves me feeling hopeless for the future is how people like the author are either completely oblivious (or worse, don’t care) about the possibility and probability of such blatant manipulation.
