With all the layoffs right now, it’s a great opportunity for unions to make people aware about them and how they can be beneficial.
I wish unions were more active on LinkedIn, so that we could like and share their posts. Recent layoffs at Omnicom/IPG have led to people discussing unions in the advertising subreddit…
Companies have already been SEOing LLMs for a few months now. There are companies who have a panel of participants who are willing to share their data, and this is then used to estimate what people might be searching on LLMs and now to optimise content so that it shows up on responses across LLMs.
Ads was the logical direction for LLMs and has always been the only pathway to any substantial revenue.
Hamas might be doing terrible things, but they are also fighting a disproportionate war, and it’s not like Israel is respecting any of the human rights conventions either.
And in Ukraine, the Ukrainian army is fighting for freedom from invaders and fighting a disproportionate war too, and are committing war crimes like torture of prisons or targeting of energy infrastructure just like Russia is doing.
War is always messy. To paint Hamas as exceptionally evil is unfair and probably an outcome of racial bias.
It’s only going to go up. Look at how revenues are increasing, it’s basically ad and PR money.
As the number of people benefitting from the current economic system continues to shrink, the number of people who will benefit from the collapse of the economic system will keep growing.
Here’s to hoping that its sooner rather than later.
There are a lot of independent creators out there too.
I want a future where communities self host their media and circumvent media companies like Netflix and Disney. Local film clubs, TV clubs, hobbyists, etc. can come together and host as a collective bringing down costs and making this more accessible.
Before e-slaves, we had real slaves made of organic grass fed flesh.
There is nuance to Ukraine Russia war too. Yes Russia is the obvious aggressor, and strengthened secession movements in eastern Ukraine through propaganda, but there were always some ethnically Russian people living there who felt they belong more with Russia.
They, along with the help of Russia were leading some kind of separatist movement and Ukraine bombed their own citizens to quel this issue. It’s hard to tell amidst all the propaganda on both sides, but there is definitely nuance here. Also not to mention Ukraine flirting with NATO membership was apparently a red line for Putin.
Don’t the internal angles need to be 90°? Two of those right angles aren’t right angles on the inside.
I was hoping we are about to enter Chinese imperialism once Trump runs the western hegemony to the ground.
The unravelling of US imperialism is an amazing outcome of the Trump presidency.
While advertising for literal scams. About 10% of Meta’s revenue is from literal scams.
