Back on the Market 

Marketing’s strategic importance is on the rise. 40.9% of marketers have a greater strategic role within their business than ever before. And 65% feel their work is having a greater impact than it did previously. It takes a marketer to build a community.

Tailor-made 

Users will be able to choose what type of content will display on the activity tab of their profile. As B2B influencers look to engage with their audience and prove their communication skills, we may see a change in content and strategy. With improved access to content, we actually want to see, will this change the way we use LinkedIn forever?

Llama Drama 

The AI race is full speed ahead with Meta announcing its own new large language model – dubbed LLaMa. Unlike other generative AI launches, however, you can’t talk to Meta’s LLaMa: instead, it’s aimed to help researchers solve problems plaguing other models.

Big fish across the pond  

CBS News was the fastest-growing site in the US in January, but The New York Times remains king as the most visited website in January – closely followed by CNN, MSN, and Fox News. Interestingly, a British contender approaches: the US edition of The Sun’s audience has more than quadrupled its US readership in the last two years.

Inst-AI-gram 

Instagram is a hard act to follow. Its co-founders are hoping that AI is the answer. ‘Artifact’, its new AI powered news app, works to curate a personalised feed through users’ likes – just like Instagram’s own addictive algorithm. Will these founders be a one-hit wonder – or will AI help them conquer the news?

Podcast Power 

Everyone loves a podcast – but how do you get on one? Show the host how your content will add value to their channel; explain how your spokesperson’s credentials makes them an ideal guest. It helps to include supporting materials, such as relevant article links, research papers and social media profiles. Perfect your pitch and you’ll soon be on air!
