Google says Gemini will not get advertisements — at the very least not but

Google has denied a brand new report that claims it’s getting ready to introduce advertisements in Gemini.

Based on Adweek, Google is in lively discussions with promoting purchasers to deliver advertisements to the Gemini expertise. Two promoting purchasers advised the publication that these advert placements are reportedly focused for a 2026 rollout. Nonetheless, Google has vehemently denied having these conversations or any plans to crowd Gemini with advertisements.

Based on Dan Taylor, Vice President of International Adverts at Google, the report is fake and “primarily based on uninformed, nameless sources who’re making inaccurate claims.” Tylor took to X to substantiate that there aren’t any advertisements within the Gemini app and that the corporate has “no present plans to vary that.”

Studies of advertisements coming to Gemini have surfaced simply as rival ChatGPT can be reportedly exploring the identical concept. Lately uncovered code strongly means that advertisements could also be headed to ChatGPT, with references to “search advert,” “advert options,” “bazaar content material,” and different associated phrases.

Google, for its half, hasn’t been shy about experimenting with advertisements in its AI merchandise as effectively. The corporate not too long ago confirmed it’s testing advertisements in Search’s AI Mode, the place sponsored outcomes now seem alongside AI-generated solutions.

Whereas Google says it has no plans to deliver advertisements to Gemini right now, it hasn’t dominated out the likelihood. Promoting makes up the majority of Google’s income, so it wouldn’t be stunning if the corporate finally explores advertisements inside Gemini as effectively.
