Film on Ocean Pollution: Reinforcing Our Commitment

Ocean pollution discussion

During our quarterly review meeting, we watched an impactful film on ocean pollution created by Ocean Generation.

The film highlighted the severe impact of ocean pollution caused by human plastic use on marine life, reinforcing our commitment to environmental intention which leads to action.

Supporting Ocean Generation is part of our 1% for the Planet pledge, where we donate 1% of our annual revenue to environmental causes.

We encourage you to watch the film here; it provides valuable insights into the issue.

OpenAI added product carousels to ChatGPT ads, showing several items in a single ad slot.
The format arrived three months after OpenAI let retailers bulk-create product-feed campaigns.

OpenAI’s system decides whether a query returns a single-product ad or a carousel — the advertiser does not choose. For brands in Japan, that moves the work upstream to the product feed. Japanese product names, prices, and stock status decide what appears. Audit the feed before year-end trading.

ChatGPT Carousel mock-up

OpenAI job listings show six ad formats in development: text, image, video, native, conversational, and interactive (DIGIDAY Japan, July 9, 2026). Three ad-format engineering roles cover infrastructure, iOS, and Android. The company spent its first four months building the ad business foundation. For foreign brands in Japan, ChatGPT is becoming a paid channel with formats beyond search-style text. Budget owners should reserve test spend before Japanese inventory opens. Early advertisers set the benchmarks.

Next Level Japan Wins TVer BEST Sales 2025

Being selected in the inaugural edition is a real honor.

TVer is Japan’s official free streaming service for broadcast content. Its ads run inside TV programs and feel natural to viewers, unlike interruptive social video ads.
