Yes it's obvious this has to happen. AIs tend to promote certain products a lot more than others. If a training set costs billions to process, the incentive to sneak your product into the set... Maybe give it a few additional training rounds of that... It's like an ad which keeps coming back over and over for the life of the model whenever someone asks a related question.

Meta is an advertising company.
Google is an advertising company.
Microsoft, in fits of jealousy and veiled rage, wishes it were an advertising company.
OpenAI is not profitable yet despite having high charge rates.
