Richard Bon, UK MD and Europe commercial lead at OOH company Clear Channel, hopes 2024 will be the year that the media industry puts “talent over technology”.

While magazine publisher Future has committed to not using AI to write content, it has been busy on plans to use the technology as a “co-pilot” for editors.

“Context” is about to become fashionable in publishing again, according to Newsworks insight director Heather Dansie.

“You can’t continue to focus just on performance marketing without looking after your brand,” says Bloomberg Media’s Europe MD, Duncan Chater.

The year ahead, according to Wavemaker UK CEO Kelly Parker, is going to feature more “noisy” conversation around AI and clients worried about being left behind amid advances in tech and measurement.

Kara Osborne also cites “trust and belonging” as key issues.

Analysis: Netflix does not disclose its ad revenue, but it would likely be relative peanuts, while subscription pricing and content remain crucial.

After months of tech companies launching or developing AI tools, 2024 will be defined by how they are integrated into the media landscape, argues Ipsos’ sales chief for audience measurement.

TikTok wants to be known as a “full-funnel” solution that provides brands with more than just performance advertising based on last-click attribution.
