· 25h ago · Originally reported by Press Release Hub

Why it matters
It signals that AI assistants are becoming a serious ad channel, with resellers used to scale sales internationally. Ad buyers outside the US may soon have a simpler way to reach audiences inside ChatGPT.
Explain it like I’m new here
It's like a popular new app hiring local salespeople in lots of countries so businesses there can buy ads on it without dealing with the app's head office directly.
