OpenAI Launches AI Tools and Tests Sponsored Agents for ChatGPT Advertising
OpenAI has introduced AI-powered tools for advertisers, including a Sponsored Agents feature that allows users to chat with business-sponsored agents and visit their websites after interacting with ads in ChatGPT. This feature is being tested with select U.S. advertisers. Additionally, the ChatGPT Ads Manager plugin enables advertisers to create, update, and analyze campaigns using natural-language prompts, with AI-generated suggestions for copy and images. HubSpot and Shopify are key partners, with Shopify's app launching internationally on September 23.
