Makes sense for the free tier, sucks to include ads in a paid tier though. Not sure who the target audience for the Go subscription is anyway, they might be better off removing it purely from a product point of view.

The part that's left out is that you'll obviously be profiled as an user and get targeted ads based on your chat history.

Newspapers and magazines used to say that, too. Wasn't true for them, just like Google search results gradually became ad-influenced, and then gradually became ads.
