OpenAI Adds Kalshi’s 2026 World Cup Odds to ChatGPT Search

1 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Jul 14

Summary

  • ChatGPT search results now show Kalshi prediction-market odds for 2026 World Cup matches, including France at 60% against Spain and England at 55% against Argentina.
  • OpenAI’s help page says users cannot place bets through ChatGPT and that Kalshi data is limited to World Cup-related queries for informational purposes only.
  • For Kalshi, the tie-up extends a broader distribution push after data deals with CNN and CNBC, while rival Polymarket struck a similar Dow Jones partnership in January.
  • The integration lands as regulators scrutinize prediction markets over possible leaks and insider trading, with a federal agency already investigating Polymarket’s legal compliance.
