Shownotes Transcript

This week, Robert Loft and Haley Hanson dig into a provocative idea from tech veteran Marissa Mayer: ad-supported AI chatbots. At the Cerebral Valley AI Summit, Mayer painted a picture of a future where AI tools provide highly detailed, ad-driven answers by integrating directly with advertisers' inventory.

Join us as we debate:

  • Will advertisers embrace radical data sharing to fuel AI experiences?
  • The potential of AI partnerships with StubHub, Ticketmaster, and other platforms to revolutionize search and chat.
  • How this vision could reshape the business model of AI providers like OpenAI and Perplexity as compute costs rise.

Is ad-supported AI the future or a privacy nightmare waiting to happen? Tune in for this thought-provoking discussion.
