Google AdSense has begun testing ad placements within AI chatbots, including AI search applications like iAsk and Liner. This strategic shift aims to harness the growing market of conversational AI, allowing chatbots to include relevant ads from Google in their responses. A Google representative confirmed that this functionality is available for AI conversational experiences, indicating Google's intention to incorporate advertisements into various AI platforms. This move underscores Google's commitment to integrating its advertising services into emerging technologies, establishing a foothold in the evolving landscape of AI chatbot interactions.
Earlier this year, the Google AdSense network, which traditionally displays ads in search results and in the margins of websites, has expanded to include conversations with chatbots operated by AI startups.
This will obviously allow Google to tap this new and upcoming market of AI Chatbots and even let them easily into those third-parties that have AI Search share.
A Google spokesperson confirmed with Bloomberg that "AdSense for Search is available for websites that want to show relevant ads in their conversational AI experiences."
You'd have to assume, Google will show ads in Gemini at some point as well.
