OpenAI would like to remind marketers that its ads are for the good of humanity
Sponsored by humanity: OpenAI makes its high-minded case for ChatGPT ads.
During a discussion at Advertising Week New York, OpenAI's Samantha Jacobson clarified the purpose behind the ads associated with ChatGPT. The company's vice president of monetization partnerships stated that the ads are intended to ensure "all of humanity could benefit from AGI." Jacobson made this claim while addressing a question about privacy and consumer trust.
She likened the ad-funded model to Paramount's subscription tiers, where viewers pay based on the number of ads they watch, and emphasized that the free version of ChatGPT requires more personal data in exchange for its services. OpenAI aims to maintain consumer trust above all, including revenue and potential partnerships.
