    Editor’s Note: AI: Let’s Take a Breath

    Last week’s Google I/O 2023 keynote speech managed to set off fresh AI alarm bells in the publishing community that I’m not convinced were justified. We’ve seen various warnings about the dangers and opportunities of AI in the months since ChatGPT launched. Some publishers are investing in dedicated AI teams while others mutter darkly about […]

    Editor’s Note Monetization in Publishing Requires Innovation

    Editor’s Note: Monetization in Publishing Requires Innovation

    While I was on holiday last week (house renovations rather than exotic holidays, I’m afraid) I found myself musing about monetization models in the wake of Time’s decision to remove its paywall. The decision was a surprise, given that Time was one of less than 30 publishers to have successfully cracked the 200,000 subscriber mark. […]

    Humix overview

    Humix Review for 2024

    State of Digital Publishing has been using the Humix Network for more than a month now and we’re ready to share our results. We won’t be looking at how the platform works, as we’ve already written at length about our experiences using it. If you’re looking to understand the platform’s mission, its inner workings and […]

    Humix overview

    What Is Humix and How Does It Work?

    Digital publishers, whether they produce video content or not, can appreciate the seemingly insatiable demand for this media. Video content in all its forms has come to dominate the digital landscape, with demand for everything from social media snippets to docuseries exploding over the last five years. Moreover, the number of people downloading or streaming […]

    Small-Scale AI Experimentation May Help Boost Publisher Potential

    Editor’s Note: Small-Scale AI Experimentation May Help Boost Publisher Potential

    As the months roll by, it’s becoming ever clearer that generative AI is not only here to stay but will have a profound impact on the publishing industry in the long run. While major publishers have been experimenting with AI for a number of years, it appears quite a few have now created dedicated teams […]

    Editor's Note More Publishers Need Games in their Subscription Strategies

    Editor’s Note: More Publishers Need Games in their Subscription Strategies

    The Super Mario Bros. film’s recent success at the global box office should be enough to convince larger publishers of gaming’s strategic potential. The film recorded the biggest global opening weekend for an animated film, raking in $567 million over a five-day window. While the film has drawn a number of poor reviews, its financial […]

    Editor's Note Meta vs. News Publishers

    Editor’s Note: Meta vs. News Publishers

    The latest salvo in the ongoing tussle between Big Tech and the news media had me shaking my head in wonder this week. A Meta-commissioned report, released on April 3, has rubbished publisher claims that Meta has disproportionately benefited from the sharing of news stories on Facebook. While the report came from the respected economic […]

    Story Formats in the Age of Digital Media

    Editor’s Note: Story Formats in the Age of Digital Media Consumption

    How important are formats to publishers? It’s about as broad and vague a question as anyone could ask, I know, but bear with me and it should make sense.  I’ve been thinking about the importance of formats on and off for about a decade, ever since my years-long effort to convince my management team that […]

    8 TikTok Content Strategies for Publishers

    8 TikTok Content Strategies for Publishers

    The number of publishers embracing TikTok is on the rise as they attempt to appeal to younger audiences with their nigh insatiable demand for short-form video content. News publishers in particular are trying to reach younger audiences, who have shown a lack of interest in traditional news channels. TikTok reaches 40% of 18–24s across all […]

    Publisher Strategies for TikTok

    Editor’s Note: Publisher Strategies for TikTok

    We’re a few days away from my first dedicated hosting gig for an SODP Office Hours event and I’m getting excited. The session will cover TikTok publisher strategies, both on the content side of the business as well as how publishers can make money. It’s an incredibly interesting subject, especially given the growing numbers of […]

    Editor’s Note AI Is Merely One of the Tools in the Productivity Toolbox

    Editor’s Note: AI Is Merely One of the Tools in the Productivity Toolbox

    After ChatGPT took the world by storm late last year, it was refreshing to see last week’s announcement of the imminent arrival of the chatbot’s next iteration received relatively modest coverage. German publication Heise quoted senior members of Microsoft’s in-country leadership last week as saying GPT-4 would arrive this week. Microsoft Germany CTO Andreas Braun […]

    Editor's Note The State of the Subscription Economy

    Editor’s Note: The State of the Subscription Economy

    For months I’ve considered canceling my Netflix subscription, struggling to justify its value proposition. While I might not be interested in the platform’s steady stream of reality shows, the sheer size of its catalog continues to win me over. There’s always something to watch even when “there’s nothing to watch”. This feels like a hangover […]

    Editor's Note Monetization in the Age of AI

    Editor’s Note: Monetization in the Age of AI

    Sentiment over generative AI is experiencing a course correction in the wake of Google and Microsoft’s missteps in implementing LLMs. Publishers are now tackling the real-world implications of a tool that can spit out reams of copy in the blink of an eye for users with very little writing experience. Concerns are mounting over a […]

    Editor's Note The Future of News Media

    Editor’s Note: The Future of News Media

    When I applied to study journalism at university many years ago, I remember my excitement at the possible news careers I would choose from. From war reporter to investigative journalist, I was genuinely enthused by the field’s potential. Over the course of the next four years I lost most of my passion and fire. To […]

    Editor's Note Generative AI – A Doomsday Device or a Dangerous Gimmick

    Editor’s Note: Generative AI – A Doomsday Device or a Dangerous Gimmick?

    I can’t help but roll my eyes at some recent takes on the impact of ChatGPT. There’s a deluge of content being created on the subject, with so many outlets and commentators rushing to cover the subject. Yes, I’m also guilty of visiting this trough more than once. I’ve returned to the subject as the […]
