OpenAI to Test Visual Ads in ChatGPT During Image Generation in US
OpenAI plans to introduce larger, image-based advertisements within ChatGPT, initially testing this format during image generation with a limited group of US advertisers. These visual ads will be clearly labeled and separate from AI-generated content, ensuring they do not influence ChatGPT's responses. The company aims to offer brands new ways to showcase products and measure ad effectiveness, while expanding advertising as part of its revenue strategy for the platform's large user base.
