If AI on its own doesn't become profitable soon, then it might go away, at least as far as access the general population currently has.

For example, Google makes the vast majority of their money through advertising. Companies (and some people) who pay for their software products directly are a tiny percentage of the advertising income. Unless Google can sell their AI directly to people/companies, they won't make money with it, so they will likely remove the ability for users to interact with it.

The extra data Google gets from AI prompts that allows better ad targeting can't possibly make up for the vast amounts of money spent on AI infrastructure. Without direct payments for the service, AI as we currently use it will go away.
