Testing ads in ChatGPT
Your free ChatGPT conversations may soon include sponsored messages from advertisers.
Deep Dive
OpenAI is starting a test to place ads within its free ChatGPT service. The company states this move is to help fund continued free access. They promise ads will be clearly labeled, will not influence the AI's answers, and will include strong privacy protections. Users will also have some control over the ads they see. This marks a significant shift in how the popular AI chatbot is financed.
Why It Matters
This could set the standard for how free, advanced AI tools are funded without compromising quality.
