OpenAI begins showing ads on ChatGPT, rollout expands to India

ChatGPT is a computer program that helps you answer questions and write things.

Soon, people using it in India may see ads, which are pictures or messages that try to get you to buy something.

OpenAI is the company that makes ChatGPT, and it wants to show ads to more people.

The ads will only appear on the free plan and a cheaper plan called 'Go'.

People who pay for plans called Plus, Pro, Enterprise, Business, or Education will not see ads.

OpenAI says the ads will not change the answers ChatGPT gives you.

The ads will have a tag that says 'sponsored' so you can tell they are ads.

OpenAI promises it will not share your conversations with the people who pay for the ads.

Advertisers will only know how many people looked at or clicked their ads.
