OpenAI tests descriptive headings above ChatGPT ads
OpenAI is testing a descriptive heading displayed above ads that appear within ChatGPT responses, per Search Engine Roundtable, which spotted the test but noted OpenAI hasn’t confirmed it or said whether the heading text is AI-generated.
Why it matters: Another small ad-labeling test in an ad unit OpenAI keeps iterating on in public, ahead of any formal announcement.
