Tibor Blaho discovered the changes in the beta app for Android while doing routine versioning work for his job at AIPRM.com, which integrates tightly with ChatGPT.
He also likes to «share what is coming next with people who care about ChatGPT and Claude news.»
The new code indicates an ads «bazaar,» and a «SearchAd» with a «SearchAdsCarousel.»
Presumably, ads would begin rolling out on the free version of ChatGPT, where it could pay for offering more features. Or there could be affiliate marketing in the shopping links they just announced.
Google is already rolling out ads on their AI products, and Copilot and Perplexity have started using ads on shopping and follow-up-questions, notes Blaho.
