The system will allow <strong>ChatGPT to list products directly on the chat screen<\/strong> and enable users to <strong>create orders without having to visit a separate website<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move by OpenAI will bring a significant change to the company&#8217;s revenue model. The company aims to transform the high user traffic on ChatGPT into a new revenue stream, not wanting to rely solely on subscription revenues. Despite the company&#8217;s current revenue run rate reaching <strong>$10 billion annually<\/strong>, it&#8217;s also known that they incurred a loss of approximately <strong>$5 billion last year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, <strong>ChatGPT displays products through links that redirect users to shopping sites<\/strong>. However, with the integrated payment system, the <strong>ordering process will become possible directly within the chat<\/strong>. There is no official statement yet on when the system will be implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Might Also Like;<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI-powered chatbots are no longer limited to just providing information.
