Google has 4.2 billion MAU and does $280 billion ($5/mau/mo). That would be $50 billion for Chat GPT

I think they can advertise for sure. Subscription depends on whether they improve the product

If they advertise more heavily, they could make several billion per year. At $1 per month/weekly user, they make $10 billion

At $1 per week, they make $40 billion

At a penny a prompt, $7 billion

At a nickel a prompt, $35 billion

There is something there

Chat GPT has 800 million weekly actives, over 3.6 billion uniques and over 2 billion prompts per day

Assuming one ad every 10 prompts and ad revenue per 1000 users of $10, they would earn $2 million a day

If they target well and deliver one ad per user per week at $40, they earn $1 billion a year

Fixed, and thanks again

All but one of these states voted for Trump

Elections have consequences

Damn. Said it wrong. Thank you

That, too

Shocker: the 10 states with the highest obesity rates all voted for Trump

Mullin’s state is #6 at 39%

The 8 states with the lowest obesity rates voted all voted for Kamala

I love Thanksgiving

We always have friends over, always make phenomenal dishes, and we intentionally make too much so everyone has leftovers for days

The holiday actually accomplishes its intended result, making us acknowledge how fortunate we are

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow babies

I will always be your friend

Just an FYI—the drip in crude price equates to around $0.31/gallon of input cost

Directionally, you’re right, but other inputs (labor and transportation) are up yoy

But at least they have guns and no trans athletes in their schools

If I could, I would do a county by county analysis. The numbers would be even worse for Republican voters

22/26 states with the highest ACA subsidies voted for Trump. Under the big ugly bill, those subsidies evaporate on January 1

These people voted for the face eating leopard party and are due for a massive shock when leopards eat their faces

this is your regular reminder that not only will the AI bubble pop at some point, it will take Elon Musk with it

This is one of the funniest clips from the show that brought us "fellow babies"

Call me an optimist, but I think things on the right are falling apart very swiftly and Trump’s air of invincibility is a few months shy of life support. That said, I am wrong a lot.

I don’t “know” anything, but the Yankee payroll plus luxury tax is $378 million. They have to fund minor leagues and team operations, likely another $100 million. Ticket sales are huge, but likely cover stadium operations

No clue what their revenue is, but I think no profits is a plausible outcome

Sacks knows as much about AI as Elon knows about government efficiency

These tech bros are experts on everything, because they stayed in a Holiday Inn Express once

My kids have measles, I lost my job, and I'm going to die because RFK Jr. cancelled the clinical trials that might have cured my cancer. But at least I know there won't be any same-sex couples in the next Frozen movie.

If they charge Kelly, every aspect of the multiple extrajudicial killing orders will be discoverable, in order to allow Kelly to defend himself against any argument that the orders given were legal

He wins anyway, but can embarrass Hegseth in the process

Dumb move by Hegseth

maybe i am going insane

The DoJ can simply re-indict IF it can find a competent attorney and convince a competent Grand Jury to do so

Yes, the statute of limitations has run on Comey, but not on James

But I’m sure it is being postponed for only two weeks . . .

Bad take

AI will permit self driving cars and smart traffic flow to minimize energy consumption

The 77 people murdered were “noncombatants” (unarmed and not attacking anyone)

Their boats had ranges of 200 miles or less and they were 1000 miles from the US

Killing them is clearly illegal

He ran against Roy Moore, who had credibly been accused of pedophilia

I highly recommend Del Toro’s Frankenstein on Netflix. He made changes to the novel to make the film far more interesting and touching. Really good, right up there with Sinners as one of the best of 2025
