OpenAI has begun testing advertisements within its ChatGPT chatbot, a move intended to sustain the free version of the service. These ads will appear below the AI's responses, clearly marked as sponsored content, and will be subject to bidding and relevance considerations similar to Google Ads. OpenAI has stated that the neutrality of responses will be maintained, ensuring that ads do not influence the AI's answers and that privacy protections will be upheld. AI

RANK_REASON Product update for an existing AI service, not a new model release or core research.
