"OpenAI says adverts will not affect ChatGPT's answers. In a blog post addressing concerns over how advertising could affect responses, OpenAI sought to reassure users: "Ads do not influence the answers ChatGPT gives you, and we keep your conversations with ChatGPT private from advertisers. Our goal is for ads to support broader access to more powerful ChatGPT features while maintaining the trust people place in ChatGPT for important and personal tasks.""
"In testing, OpenAI has matched ads to users based on conversation topics, past chats and previous ad interactions. For example, someone researching recipes may see advertisements for grocery delivery services or meal kits. Advertisers will not have access to individual user data, according to OpenAI, and will instead receive aggregated information such as views and clicks. Users will be able to view their ad interaction history, clear it at any time, dismiss ads,"
ChatGPT has begun testing adverts in the United States, initially for logged-in Free tier users and subscribers to the Go plan. The Go plan costs $8 per month in the US. Users on higher-tier paid plans including Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education will not see ads. Ads appear as banners and the trial focuses on learning from feedback. OpenAI says adverts will not influence ChatGPT's answers and that conversations remain private from advertisers. Ads will be labelled as sponsored and personalization draws on conversation topics, past chats and ad interactions. Advertisers receive aggregated metrics, and users can view, clear or dismiss ad interaction history.
