OpenAI trying to patch the massive leak in their server costs with ads is peak tech company energy. They're out here burning through cash faster than a GPU farm on full load, watching those cloud bills stack up like a memory leak nobody wants to fix. The Flex Tape meme format is *chef's kiss* here. Sure, you've got infrastructure costs that could fund a small country's GDP, but slap some ads on it and call it a business model. Nothing says "we're totally sustainable" like desperately monetizing your product after promising to democratize AI. Remember when they were "open" AI? Good times. Now they're just another company discovering that training models on the entire internet isn't exactly cheap, and VCs eventually want their money back.
