A recent report claims that Google is preparing to inject its ever-more-popular Gemini AI tools with advertisements, but Google is adamant that there are “no plans” for ads in Gemini.
A report today from AdWeek claims that Google has “told advertising clients” that it plans to bring ads to “its AI chatbot Gemini” sometime in 2026, separate from existing ads found in AI Mode and AI Overviews.
Google denies this is happening.
In a tweet, Google’s Dan Taylor, VP of Global Ads, says that “there are no ads in the Gemini app and there are no current plans to change that.” Taylor also claims that the report is based on “uninformed, anonymous sources who are making inaccurate claims.” Google’s AdLiaison account reiterated this, saying:
…In short, there are no ads in the Gemini app, and there are no current plans to change that. Ads are available in AI Overviews in the US and are expanding to more English speaking countries. We continue to test ads in AI Mode.
This comes at a time when Gemini is seeing major growth. Google revealed in October that Gemini has more than 650 million monthly users, up from 350 million earlier this year. Some of that growth came from Nano Banana, which Google said drove 23 million new users.
