CHATGPT IS GETTING ADS 💰
What’s up? OpenAI announced that ads will soon appear in ChatGPT.
How will this work? Starting with users on the free and $8/month “Go” plans, ads will appear under chatbot answers and be labeled “Sponsored.” While the chatbot’s responses won’t be influenced by advertisers, the ads themselves will be tailored based on your conversations. This personalized ad setting will be on by default, though users can opt out and get general ads instead. OpenAI insists it won’t sell user data and that chats remain private. Higher-tier plans like Plus and Pro will stay ad-free.
“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.
(An example of ads I like are on Instagram, where I've found stuff I like that I otherwise never would have. We will try to make ads ever more useful to users.)”
Why is this significant? Roughly 95% of ChatGPT users are on the free plan, but OpenAI is spending billions on infrastructure to make AI smarter, and that money has to come from somewhere. People on social media are already upset, but you can’t realistically expect frontier-level AI to be free forever. That’s why ads are basically inevitable. For advertisers, this opens a powerful new channel: highly tailored, intent-rich audiences in real time. The tension, though, is obvious—when people share increasingly personal information with chatbots, targeted advertising stops being just marketing and starts raising serious privacy and trust questions.
GOOGLE IS TESTING AN AI AGENT FOR CHROME 🦾
What’s up? Google is testing a new feature called “Skills” in Chrome that lets its Gemini AI perform tasks for you inside the browser.
How will this work? Right now, you can use Gemini in Chrome to do things like explain confusing text, summarize articles, or pull info from multiple tabs. But with “Skills,” Google is testing a way for you to give Gemini specific instructions—like planning a trip or organizing research—so it can do more for you automatically. These Skills are being added through a hidden page called “chrome://skills,” and while they’re not available to the public yet, they show how Google is turning Gemini from a helper into a full-on AI assistant inside Chrome.
Why is this important? This is another big step toward making your browser smarter and more useful. Instead of bouncing between tabs or apps, Gemini could eventually handle tasks like booking trips, managing schedules, or researching for you—just by following your instructions.
