The folks at @niemanlab.org should have an all-business edition of their annual predictions. This one from @samguzik.com is spot on – it's all about value capture. www.niemanlab.org/2024/12/youl...
You’ll need to care more about your value chain
"Going into 2025, we need an industry-wide assessment of how our value chain functions because technical and regulatory forces will conspire to make our strategic position less defensible."

My prediction for 2025: Newsrooms will need to care more about their value chain.

Grateful to INMA for letting me talk about the AI trends news leaders should be following in 2025.

TL;DR:
1) Multi-modality is an opportunity and a threat
2) Model collapse and scaling laws will drive the future of content value
3) The AI supply chain matters, a lot.

Multimodality, content fight, and supply chain are 3 AI areas to watch
Sam Guzik, senior director of product at New York Public Radio and foresight affiliate for Future Today Institute, shares his thoughts on AI developments news publishers should track in 2025.

One of my favorite parts of FTI’s Tech Trends Report are the scenarios.

Scenarios surface strategic insights. They make far-off risk feel urgent. And they help us start essential conversations about how we should respond to what's happening in the present.

In Nieman Journalism Lab's annual collection of predictions for the future of journalism, I wrote about how devices are the new gatekeepers.

Devices increasingly use AI as a layer to synthesize incoming information and determine what and when information should reach users.
