Microsoft’s AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman believes most web content is “freeware’ that can be used for training AI models. The only exception: websites that explicitly opt out. Freeware is any form of copyrighted software that can be freely downloaded, installed and used by end users. The quote.

The perfect click refers to a click from a SERP that takes the user directly to the single best webpage or resource that directly solves their problem. The ultimate aim of assistive search features like Google’s AI Overviews and Bing’s Copilot is to bring the user down the funnel and get them to the Perfect Click without leaving the search interface (for now, that is a SERP).

The Association of National Advertisers had some good news for the Cannes Lions audience earlier this month. In 2023, media buys on mostly bogus made-for-advertising (MFA) websites represented an extraordinary 15% of ad spend. A year later, that had dropped to 4%. Slightly souring the news is the fact that digital ad spend is projected to grow by 16% in 2024, so that’s 4% of a larger number.

While we had people assigned to drive most of the process, inevitably, I would be involved in some of the final presentations.
