Brief
OpenAI has started showing visual advertisements alongside image generation outputs for users in the U.S. only, according to TechCrunch. The ads appear after image results are displayed, per the report.
Why It Matters
Displaying ads directly with generated images could affect user experience and raise questions about commercialization and content context.
