    News from the EDGE | Week of 12.9.2024

    We reached out across the pond, and we got him, Andrew Optimisey joins us on the EDGE this week! We tackle a lot in a short time frame: marketing shortcuts and data ownership are at the top of the heap. Companies like HubSpot and Google are creating "walled gardens" of data, stirring legal and ethical concerns about who truly owns consumer information. We also cover an article from Search Engine Journal by Shelly Walsh, getting takes from 7 top SEO experts and their take on AI Overviews and where search is going. Oh yeah, OpenAI’s Sora AI video project is finally released…..it only took a year.  A spicy side note: HubSpot's acquisition of Frame AI aims to supercharge their conversational intelligence game. Despite the buzz, Andrew cautions about the "soup du jour" nature of tech companies diving headfirst into AI without addressing underlying privacy concerns. Stay sharp, stay informed, and keep your digital shields up with EDGE of the Web!

    Ori Zilbershtein joins the EDGE as a guest to go over the news this week. We crack open a number of Google News pieces from around the marketing space. Some quick takeaways: Make sure you use WhatsApp as a conversion in Google Ads—you better be there. We discuss the report on shifting trends in CTR per industry and how the data could be interpreted another way, i.e. AI Overviews viciously rearranging the landscape. Is OpenAI actually thinking about developing a browser now? They hired an ex-Google Chrome engineer, so maybe. All this plus some great takes from Ori as he returns to the show on the news side.
