근거 요약
AI가 이 인사이트를 합성한 방법 — 직접 인용 없음
Several commenters discussed the financial realities of running AI services. One operator specifically noted they have managed a highly successful language model service for years purely supported by advertising, highlighting that serving AI responses is significantly cheaper than calling traditional search engines. Meanwhile, others expressed skepticism about the long-term survival of free tiers once venture funding dries up, indicating a strong market need for sustainable alternative monetization.
