Faced with the massive costs of AI infrastructure, OpenAI is looking to monetize its 800 million weekly users by advertising in ChatGPT. The company says it plans to test ads in the free tier, as well as ChatGPT Go, a low-cost subscription tier now rolling out in the US. Clearly labeled ads will begin to appear at the bottom of the chatbot’s answers and ChatGPT’s responses will not be influenced by ads, said OpenAI, adding it will “never” sell users’ data to advertisers. “It is clear to us that a lot of people want to use a lot of AI and don’t want to pay, so we are hopeful a business model like this can work,” posted OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on X.
