What happened

AI digest

On 21 October 2026, OpenAI outlined the technical architecture of the advertising system it has built for ChatGPT through official channels. According to OpenAI, the system is driven by a large language model (LLM) to understand conversational intent, separate ads from answer content and support the delivery of relevant ads at scale; its design goals centre on user trust and relevance. The information made public so far covers only the system architecture and design approach, with no disclosure of delivery scale, launch timing or commercialisation details. The story is still developing.
