AI chatbots and TikTok reshape how young people get their daily news
Artificial intelligence is changing the way people get their news, with more readers turning to chatbots like ChatGPT to stay up to date. At the same time, nearly half of young adults now rely on platforms such as TikTok as their main source of news. The findings come from the Reuters Institute's annual Digital News Report, released this week. The Oxford University-affiliated study surveyed nearly 97,000 people across 48 countries to track how global news habits are shifting. The study found that a notable number of people are using AI chatbots to read headlines and get news updates – a shift described by the institute's director Mitali Mukherjee as a 'new chapter' in the way audiences consume information. While only 7 percent overall say they use AI chatbots to find news, that number rises among younger audiences – 12 percent of under-35s and 15 percent of under-25s now rely on tools such as OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini or Meta's Llama for their news. 'Personalised, bite-sized and quick – that's how younger audiences want their news, and AI tools are stepping in to deliver exactly that,' Mukherjee noted. Beyond reading headlines, many readers are turning to AI for more complex tasks: 27 percent use it to summarise news articles, 24 percent for translations, and 21 percent for recommendations on what to read next. Nearly one in five have quizzed AI directly about current events.

Diary from Cannes: AI's impact on business, a stalled economy, and Disney's succession
As a journalist, you never quite know what you'll learn at a conference where top executives are floating around. Someone like me — the interested observer — is always paying attention to varying things on the ground: the watches execs are wearing (they say a lot), who's wearing health trackers (also says a lot), who's huddled in a corner talking shop, and what their body language is. And of course, what people are actually telling me. To that end, I return from a week at the Cannes Lions advertising and media industry conference. The best way I can describe this event is it's as if the World Economic Forum bought LiveNation and created a rebellious sister conference. By subscribing, you are agreeing to Yahoo's Terms and Privacy Policy This year, I saw and heard a bit of everything, including from NFL great Chad Johnson, who shared he lived in the Cincinnati Bengals' training facility for the first two years of his career to save money. I didn't expect to hear that. I also didn't expect to hear this from DJ Diplo: "I have sold my music catalog a few times. You can always sell and build more. I did a 75% sale like five years ago, and I already built another catalog that I want to maybe move again, because sometimes I'd rather have capital to invest in other things." Where is he putting that fresh capital to work? He said medical devices, fintech companies, and real estate. Suffice to say, this coming week I plan to weave more observations into my new show at Yahoo Finance called Opening Bid. I will debut the show live Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. ET in a fast-paced format. Excited to bring you the fire (i.e., stock analysis and big interviews). You can watch here or on our app, all major streaming platforms, and DirecTV. Have something you want me to discuss on Monday? Drop me a line today on X @BrianSozzi. In the meantime, here's a roundup of things that stood out to me from my chats on the beach. "Nothing is ever really off the table, and really, the mindset of what's possible is always encouraged." "What I would say there is what's important to us is that we are able to protect our users' privacy, their deletion rights, like we have policies that ensure that when users take down a post, the post is taken down. And so it's really important, and as we've said in our terms of service, that we have a conversation with folks who have access to our data because that's a commitment that we have in terms of our policies, and it's also to know how Reddit data is used." "If I were going to advise the new CEO of Disney, I would say stay close to Bob Iger for the first six months. Really take that apprenticeship to heart because Bob is an amazing CEO — very few like him. If you can just be at his side and look at the whole company ... but get close to Bob, sit by his side, and just learn how he does things." "Look, I'm a consummate optimist, and no matter how difficult it is out there, there are holidays that come. People want to be celebrating with their families. Santa comes every year." "I think it's harder than most people realize. And the interesting thing is, for the past five to 10 years, we have been putting them together — linear TV content creates the streaming content. Now all of that has changed." "I think people are being very intentional where they spend money. It's cyclical, right? So it happens, you know, things get better, and that comes back. What we have seen is that it happens every single time the same way." Brian Sozzi is Yahoo Finance's Executive Editor and a member of Yahoo Finance's editorial leadership team.
