I disagree with the implicit assumption that llms can’t be gamed. There’s simply too much money to be made for that to remain true.

Yeah it's still too early for us to know for sure but I'd expect LLMs getting pretty bad pretty quick.

Once ads are added there is, again, a motivation to make replies very long and rambly. Even now I begin getting "annoyed":

Yes it's grammatically correct and "humanly" sounding but all I really want is five dashes with ingredients and instructions for an apple pie.

Given enough time, I'm confident the "Certainly I can help you. Here's what you need to..." will once again turn into a paragraph or two to have more opportunities to sell to advertisers.

The economics still don't seem to favor brief responses.
