OpenAI Adds Visual Ads to ChatGPT Image Results

OpenAI is introducing visual display ads that will appear alongside images generated by ChatGPT.

The feature begins rolling out in the U.S. later this month, targeting only free and low-cost subscription tiers. The company states that ads will be clearly labeled and will not influence the answers provided by ChatGPT.

This move aims to attract online advertisers looking to use visual storytelling to reach potential customers. Eventually, these ads are expected to target ChatGPT’s 1.2 billion weekly users as the rollout expands globally.
