☆ Media executives urge Congress to enact legislation to prevent AI models from training on ‘stolen goods’
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-10 | by ( Liam Reilly | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

Roger Lynch, Condé Nast’s chief executive, told senators that current AI models were built using “stolen goods,” with chatbots scraping and displaying news articles from publishers without their permission or compensation. News organizations, Lynch said, seldom have a say in whether their content is used to train AI or is output by the models. To avoid the pilfering of news publishers’ content and, thereby, their coffers, Lynch proposed AI companies use licensed content and compensate publishers for content being used for training and output. Coffey also noted AI models have introduced inaccuracies and produced so-called hallucinations after scraping content from less-than-reputable sources — which runs the risk of misinforming the public or ruining a publication’s reputation. “The risk of low-quality [generative] AI content dominating the internet is amplified by the drastic economic decline of news publications over the past two decades,” Coffey said.

Surprise: Not every YouTuber edits their own videos. Often a behind-the-scenes gig, the lives and career paths of YouTube editors aren't as public as the stories behind the platform's stars. But like freelance work in media more broadly, many YouTube editors are still figuring out how to structure their payment rates and hours. And unlike in Hollywood where unions often dictate labor terms, YouTube editors are often on their own. Business Insider connected with editors, creators, agents, managers, and other digital-media industry professionals to learn more about the work of editors on YouTube.

☆ Media stocks jump after report says Apple, Paramount are discussing streaming bundle
▼ + stars: | 2023-12-01 | by ( Drew Richardson | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Media stocks jumped on Friday following a Wall Street Journal report that Apple and Paramount Global are in early-stage talks to offer a bundle of the two company's streaming platforms. The companies have talked about bundling Apple TV+ and Paramount+ in an offering that would cost less than subscribing to the two separately, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday. Paramount+ and Apple TV+ could be an ideal match for a bundle given their differing content strategies. Apple TV+ is known to offer a robust library of exclusive and prestige content, while Paramount+ boasts a larger back-catalog of recognizable TV shows and movies. An Apple partnership could be a strong opportunity to help Paramount pivot in the rapidly changing media environment.

After apologizing for his post at the event on Wednesday, Musk unleashed a profanity-laced tirade against some of the advertisers for fleeing the platform. The Tesla (TSLA.O) chief acknowledged that an extended boycott by advertisers could bankrupt X, formerly Twitter, but suggested that the public would blame the brands and not him for a potential collapse. "We believe there is risk that more companies will stop advertising on X; at least on a short-term basis," D.A. Monthly U.S. ad revenue at X has declined at least 55% year-over-year each month since Musk bought the company in October 2022, Reuters reported last month.

☆ Often Dismissed, Sideline Reporters Now Deal With Fabrication Fallout

Young women just beginning careers in sports journalism asked one another in group chats if the kind of practice Ms. Thompson was describing was OK. Veteran journalists who have held prominent sideline reporting roles said they carefully crafted statements to post on social media, their impulse to defend their profession overriding their reluctance to criticize another woman. It is a role that centers on establishing trust with both the teams and leagues being covered and with the viewing audience. It is dismissed by some viewers, who say the questions asked of players and coaches are often banal, leading to generic answers. And for female sideline reporters, that disrespect can often be coupled with the sexist trope that the most important thing they can do on air is look good.

Activist investor Nelson Peltz may be intent on making sure Disney directors don't get that luxury. He tried earlier this year to get himself on the Disney board, only to be rebuffed by Iger and eventually walk away in February. Disney's board has also struggled to groom a successor to Iger, who has five times renewed his contract to stick around as CEO. Still, to sway Disney shareholders to vote for Peltz or other board members, Trian may need to push for specific ideas or financial engineering that Disney hasn't already articulated. If not, his next move could be a public fight to get himself and others on Disney's board.

BuzzFeed is in advanced talks to sell Complex Networks, the streetwise digital media company behind the popular ComplexCon cultural festival, at less than half the price it paid for the company two years ago, a sign of the industrywide troubles afflicting digital media. BuzzFeed paid about $300 million for Complex in 2021. Buzzfeed is planning to keep First We Feast, the division of Complex responsible for the popular “Hot Ones” interview franchise, after the transaction, one of the people said. When BuzzFeed went public two years ago, it made Complex a centerpiece of its pitch to investors. Complex was reliably profitable, a milestone that had eluded many in the digital media industry, and its portfolio of brands seemed a natural fit for BuzzFeed’s focus on young audiences.

It will also examine generative artificial intelligence such as OpenAI's ChatGPT and how it uses original news content in its output, the Commission added.
