Echobox\u2019s CTO <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/leadership\/?utm_campaign=how%20we%20use%20AI&amp;utm_source=resources&amp;utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr Marc Fletcher<\/a> explains how we\u2019re using AI to help online publishers.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re building a technology for publishers, it\u2019s important to consider the broader changes that are disrupting the industry right now. Across the board,&nbsp;<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/fact-tank\/2020\/02\/14\/fast-facts-about-the-newspaper-industrys-financial-struggles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">publishing revenues are falling<\/a>. There is an unsettling and real question about the future of the news industry and the sustainability of independent journalism. People are&nbsp;<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.journalism.org\/fact-sheet\/newspapers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">buying fewer newspapers<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.digitalnewsreport.org\/survey\/2019\/paying-for-news-and-the-limits-of-subscription\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">finding their news online for free<\/a>. Currently an important proportion of revenue that the publishing industry receives comes from ad impressions on their websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s interesting within online consumption of news is where the growth in traffic is coming from. Increasingly people are getting their news from Facebook and Twitter, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/fact-tank\/2017\/10\/04\/key-trends-in-social-and-digital-news-media\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">finding stories based on what their friends are talking about<\/a>. Driving more revenue for online publishers is about optimising their presence on social media (and optimising in terms of reach and link clicks to the publisher\u2019s site). This is where we chose to focus our technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picking the right content to share by intuition throughout the day is challenging. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/research_besttime\/?utm_campaign=how%20we%20use%20AI&amp;utm_source=resources&amp;utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Picking the optimum minute of the day<\/a> using intuition is nearly impossible. It gets even more difficult to consider the competing demands of different articles and to schedule them all so that each story has sufficient space whilst capitalising as much as possible for peaks in when a publisher\u2019s audience are online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A typical person can take perhaps a couple of different variables into consideration when trying to predict the performance for a social media post. However, for a machine the number of variables can be nearly infinite. Only an intelligent machine has the ability to predict with a high accuracy how much reach and link clicks a post will generate.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/?utm_campaign=how%20we%20use%20AI&amp;utm_source=resources&amp;utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Echobox<\/a>&nbsp;has developed an AI platform that takes a large quantity of variables into account and analyses them in real time to determine optimum post performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We do this in a number of ways. When a publisher uses Echobox, their stories are automatically inputted into our algorithm. Our algorithm scans those stories in real time and assigns a score to each \u2014 how likely a story is to do well. It can assess all the stories at the publisher\u2019s disposal and create a schedule order that will optimise click-throughs on social throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1_-P-j8yGAQSvy10MAdI8ow.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1_-P-j8yGAQSvy10MAdI8ow.png 700w, https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1_-P-j8yGAQSvy10MAdI8ow-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1_-P-j8yGAQSvy10MAdI8ow-260x200.png 260w, https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/1_-P-j8yGAQSvy10MAdI8ow-87x67.png 87w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Working with an AI throws up interesting logistical questions that challenge our human assumptions of the best way of doing things. Clients frequently tell us that they need a constant stream of news throughout the day, and we\u2019ve built the algorithm to accommodate for that. But, on a purely technical point of view, clustering more news around peak times, like commuting hours, would be the most effective in terms of traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there\u2019s always the complexity inherent to optimising for a closed source system like Facebook. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/resources\/blog\/how-facebooks-algorithm-change-is-affecting-publishers\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Changes in the Facebook algorithm<\/a> have achieved almost mythic status, largely because of their unpredictability and often far-reaching ramifications. Changes like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Facebook_Instant_Articles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instant Articles<\/a>&nbsp;demonstrate Facebook\u2019s desire to assimilate news media within their platform (in the same way as they have with&nbsp;<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Facebook_Messenger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Instant Messaging<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Facebook_features#Facebook_Live\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">live video<\/a>, to name but two). It\u2019s a fair question what Facebook intends to do with news media and what that means for publishers\u2019 revenues, as well as for independent journalism. However, for the moment, Instant Articles seem to provide an interesting new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/lib%C3%A9ration-facebooks-instant-articles-xavier-grangier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">way<\/a>&nbsp;for publishers to distribute their content, while Facebook syndicates ads within the article and returns those revenues to the publisher. Thankfully, Echobox is fully compatible with Instant Articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Developing the technology that we have at Echobox is a brilliantly challenging new frontier of AI \u2014 applying Deep Learning capability to the real world problem of the sustainability of digital news. And the aggregate data from our publishers is an intensely interesting data set, a blueprint of how we as a society consume stories today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.echobox.com\/?utm_campaign=how%20we%20use%20AI&amp;utm_source=resources&amp;utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more&nbsp;about Echobox<\/a>, and follow us on Twitter for regular updates&nbsp;<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/echoboxHQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@EchoboxHQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can AI be applied to benefit the news industry?
