Stop news-ing. Start playing. We use #AI to find, script, and talk stories that inform and entertain. Gia is coming.

At this stage of our game, we gotta shout out our founder when he gets published!
Because: thought leadership.
@theuncharles is in @wnip!
The NYT may be blocking #AI, but the good folks at @wnip / @MediaMakersMeet aren’t blocking satirical looks at upside world of modern media.

News is broken. B/c news chooses to be broken. They know what people want. They say it, ignore it, go out of business, complain about, and lament the loss of “news.”
The @TexasTribune announced their first ever layoffs yesterday. Sad. But predictable and perhaps preventable.
We want to do more than like tweets. If you’re a news publisher hurt by C-18, we’re want to help.
We built Gia to talk the news you write. We’re not search or social. So people can hear your stories & share your links.
Work with us to solve news for Canadians.
DM us to talk.
Often started by the journalists themselves, in an already-difficult-to-survive environment, small outlets are now the most vulnerable to Meta’s news-blocking. How are independent and community news across the country dealing?

C-18 is such an important story – in so many ways. @AnjaKaradeglija helped us see that losing news hurts Canadians and the people who report on the news.

“… audiences are becoming increasingly dependent on audio experiences, further <<driving>> the need for news media organisations to explore how to implement audio as an option.”
A great story on the need to audio-fy news by @paula_felps.

I am so proud to have played a role building @talkmedspoke .
Our team knew expert doctors (like @Kidney_boy) wanted ppl to hear what they have to say. But it’s hard to produce talks. And you can't share MP3s on Twitter, LinkedIn, or other places.
We made it easy. Have a listen!

When subs and revenue stall for two years, you’ve hit a pretty tough ceiling.
The next play is to cut costs. Not just headcount, but the cost of inputs. For Sirius, that’s the cost of content.
At what point will Sirius start to use #AI to generate their news?
SiriusXM is struggling to attract new subscribers, financial disclosure reports show $SIRI thedesk.net/2023/08/siriusxm…
Left or right? Which logo do you just have to press?
Looking for some human help for our #ai-powered #startup
Which app icon would you press to be informed and entertained?
We’re down to two logos for our #startup. She’s called @giadotapp (b/c she generates intelligent audio). She uses #AI to find, script, and talk thousands of stories a day.
Would welcome some human input...

The #future of #news is: fast, easy, and irresistibly good.
So, we took out the things you don’t need – finicky little buttons.
This #BlueBubble is everything you need.
It’s impossible not to touch it.
Go on – we dare you.

Social media made media democratic.
More people creating media sliced up the monetization pie.
#AI makes media infinitely democratic.
What is that going to do to how media makes money?
Especially in news…

Twitter doesn't drive traffic. They shared code that shows they suppress tweets with outside links. That goes for all plaforms.
Besides, long-form news isn’t the media.
The blurb people read/hear *is* the media.
@industrydive figured out media needs to be pithy and proactive.
NPR's analytics show that less than 2% of our traffic comes from Twitter. It's not a surprise to people who work in media, but even before the labeling saga, there was a pretty strong business case that the game wasn't worth the candle
