OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Advertising in India and Adds Senior Meta Executive

OpenAI has begun running paid advertisements for its ChatGPT service across Indian digital platforms, marking the first time the chatbot is promoted with commercial ad slots in the country’s online ecosystem.

ChatGPT ads appear as banner and video spots on popular Indian news sites and social apps, featuring the familiar green logo and a short tagline inviting users to “experience AI‑powered conversation” on mobile and desktop devices.

Meta announced the appointment of a senior executive to oversee its collaboration with OpenAI in India, a move aimed at aligning product strategy and advertising sales between the two tech giants.

India represents a fast‑growing market for AI services, and OpenAI expects the ad rollout and partnership support to increase user acquisition and generate new revenue streams as smartphone penetration and internet usage continue to rise.
