US EditionAfter ChatGPT, Google DeepMind CEO Confirms No Plans to Bring Ads to Gemini
Google DeepMind CEO says Gemini will remain ad-free to prioritize user experience while OpenAI plans to test ads in ChatGPT's free and lower-cost tiers in coming weeks.
- At Davos this week, Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis told reporters that Google has `no plans` to introduce ads in Gemini, reiterating a December statement from Google VP Dan Taylor.

- Responding to an AdWeek article, Google denied plans for ads in Gemini, with $175 trillion ad revenue in 2023 making the stance notable.
