Welcome to this week’s edition of The Yieldbird Digest!

Does your company avail of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence? They are fast becoming the driving force behind Publisher planning and innovation; and are now being incorporated into processes and set-ups. “These new technologies are the new printing press,” says María Florencia Coelho, New Media Research Manager with La Nación in Argentina, commenting on the AI / ML trends report, just published by International Media Support.

We are supporters of this approach, because we can see how much can be gained by using these solutions. And in support of our own stance, we present here our own Publisher case study involving Machine Learning.

In other features, we discuss Google’s Privacy Sandbox rollout, coming a month after the announcement that 3rd party cookies will be with us for some time yet. What is more, IAB Europe shares insights from its Contextual Advertising analysis.
