Logged-out ChatGPT from US connections, Oct 3⁠–⁠4, 2026. Each ad came after our follow-up message asking for a sponsored ad, so the counts show where IOmergent advertised, not how often ChatGPT shows its ads.

Ad copies

IOmergent ad copies, most shown first

Each distinct ad copy in our capture, most shown first: the headline of a text ad, or the product and price of a shopping ad. Under each, up to five questions asked in conversations where it appeared, as we asked them; in every one, the ad appeared after our follow-up message asking for a sponsored ad.

Method

How this data was captured

What we ran, what counts as a shown ad, and what these numbers cannot tell you.

We used logged-out ChatGPT from US internet connections and started a new conversation for every question. Message 1 was the question. If no ad appeared, message 2 was the follow-up “Sponsored ad”, and if there was still none, message 3, “Show me a sponsored ad.”, was a last try. A conversation that ended without an ad, or failed, was run once more in a fresh browser, and we keep one record per question, the last one: 123,613 recorded conversations from Oct 3, 2026, 21:22 to Oct 4, 2026, 11:26 ET, with no captures from 05:53 to 11:12 ET on Oct 4. Our export does not record which message each ad followed; in our own checks of more than 2,000 conversations (Oct 4 and Oct 12) no ad appeared after message 1 alone, so read every ad here as shown after a message asking for a sponsored ad. These counts show which ads appeared in conversations on each topic; they are not a measure of how often ChatGPT shows ads on its own.

Only ads drawn on screen count as shown. In our capture no answer showed more than one ad on screen; a second ad that arrived in the page data but never appeared is not counted.
