Since ChatGPT launched last November, interest in artificial intelligence has skyrocketed, with discourse around its potential impact on everything from healthcare to dating. Wherever artificial intelligence is being discussed, however, one overarching theme persists: privacy.
AI systems need copious amounts of data to operate effectively, and when we consider Big Tech’s chequered history of scraping, exploiting, and mishandling people’s data, it’s no wonder there’s trepidation over the privacy implications of AI. How tech giants, however, are able to handle users’ data is changing and perhaps the privacy wave sweeping the tech industry can reassure worried netizens that AI’s use will be regulated.

The Cookieless Future: Best Practices for Advertisers

Illustration

The digital advertising landscape is undergoing a significant transformation as we enter the cookieless era. Marketers were able to acquire information about users' surfing habits and preferences thanks to these little data files saved on users' devices, paving the way for more tailored and relevant advertising. Third-party cookies have been phasing out, and the cookieless environment has developed as a new reality for advertisers as a result of worries about privacy and data protection.

The cookie-less environment calls for a new strategy, one that places more emphasis on personal data security, user consent, and innovation. Cookies used to give advertisers with a wealth of user information, but that data is no longer reliable. Instead, they need to experiment with new approaches and tools for connecting with the people they are targeting. To adapt to this new reality, advertising strategies will need to change their primary focus to gaining users' confidence.

Advertisers need to adjust to a cookie-less environment because it presents a chance to strengthen their connections with consumers. Advertisers may gain trust, provide more personalized experiences, and increase ROI. To survive and thrive in the cookieless era, businesses in the digital advertising industry will need to adapt and change.

To boost consumer engagement, the clickthrough shouldn’t follow the generic ad to static website flow, explained Jon Oberlander, executive vice president of social at Tinuiti and CEO of Ampush, during a recent Tech-Talk Webinar.
