AI companies are heavily investing in Super Bowl 60 (LX) ads on February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium, with intense rivalry highlighted by Anthropic and OpenAI's commercials. Ad spots cost around $8 million for 30 seconds, fueling competition for massive visibility among 130 million viewers.
Ad Costs
NBCUniversal charges a record $8 million average for a 30-second spot, with premium ones at $10 million, excluding production costs of $2-5 million. Total broadcaster revenue from past Super Bowls has exceeded $800 million, like Fox's haul last year.
Key AI Competitors
Major players are battling for attention through high-profile spots:

Rivalry Highlights
Anthropic's pre-game ads mock ad intrusions in AI (targeting OpenAI's ChatGPT plans), prompting CEO Sam Altman's X rebuttal calling them "deceptive". OpenAI counters with its own spot, escalating the public feud. This positions AI as a central Super Bowl narrative amid soaring prices.
