ChatGPT Ads Targeted Using Prompts and Personal Data

Original: ChatGPT Targets Ads to You Based on Your Prompts, Phone Number, and Email

OpenAI's ChatGPT is now serving advertising targeted to individual users based on the content of their prompts, along with personal details such as phone numbers and email addresses. The report describes how the chatbot's ad system draws on conversation context and account information to tailor promotions. The disclosure has drawn strong criticism from users who see the practice as a privacy intrusion and a shift in how personal AI conversations may be commercially exploited.

Why now: People are alarmed that private AI chat prompts and personal contact details are being used for ad targeting.
