Talk of the Town

  • Microsoft announced that Bing Search is integrating into ChatGPT to provide more relevant and newer responses. The update allows ChatGPT to pull answers from the internet and provide citations. The move is also a deeper step forward into the close relationship between Microsoft and OpenAI.

  • Takeaway: This will make for a more robust experience and stronger performance within the AI chatbot. But it’s also a race to AI dominance among tech leaders – will Google, Amazon, or Meta be able to keep up?

  • The impending layoffs are a part of the company’s continued focus in improving operational efficiency… but at what cost? Ad buyers are reporting ongoing problems with operations, content moderations, and more each day. Meta’s already cut 11k roles (13% of its workforce) with another 10k cuts expected over the next few months.

  • Takeaway: Whether or not these cuts have any connection with the ad problems, it doesn’t inspire confidence in Meta or Facebook within the marketing community. Keep your eyes on this developing story – and maybe keep a close eye on your Meta ads as well.
