  • OpenAI will begin displaying advertisements in ChatGPT in 31 European countries, including Denmark, starting August 24.
  • The ads will appear after users over 18 with Free or Go subscriptions ask questions, but will not affect the AI's responses or share conversation data with advertisers.
  • OpenAI states that ads will not be shown for sensitive topics like personal health or politics, and will not be shared with advertisers.

OpenAI is rolling out advertisements in its popular language model, ChatGPT, to 31 European countries, including Denmark, beginning Monday, August 24. The company announced the expansion on its website, noting that the feature has been tested in the United States since February 9 and has since been extended to Canada, Mexico, and Japan over the past six months.

According to OpenAI, only users aged 18 and above with a Free or Go subscription will see the advertisements. These ads will be displayed directly following a user's query within the language model. OpenAI emphasized that the advertisements will not influence the AI's responses or share any user conversation data with advertisers.

The company also assured users that ads will not be shown in connection with sensitive topics, such as personal or mental health, or political matters. This move marks a significant step in OpenAI's monetization strategy for its widely used AI tool.

OpenAI har siden 9. februar testet tiltaget i USA og har i løbet af de seneste seks måneder udvidet reklamerne til blandt andet Canada, Mexico og Japan.
