Destined to go down as the AI Super Bowl, more AI-themed ads have been racking up this year with a few surprising reveals, Fox Sports Sales Chief Mark Evans told the The Hollywood Reporter.
With 30-second spots selling for $8 million, it’s been game on for tech giants who have been flocking to the Super Bowl as a cost-effective way to make a huge splash with a massive audience. At 200 million viewers, Super Bowl spots are costing less than a nickel a viewer–cheaper than many other sports shows.
Of the first-timers taking the plunge, ChatGPT-maker OpenAI is expected to make its Super Bowl debut with its first television commercial, according to the Wall Street Journal. The company has neither confirmed nor denied the report.
Google is returning to the game to promote its large language model, Gemini, but already needed to edit the ad after a cheese fact went viral for being overstated. Doesn’t get more generative AI than that. Two years ago, Gemini’s predecessor Bard did exactly the same thing during its launch when it hallucinated a space fact in a live demo.
Meta is advertising its AI Ray-Bans, Salesforce is dining with AI, and GoDaddy is showing off AI design features.
But Amazon-backed Anthropic has decided to sit this one out, a spokesperson told me, having aired a 5-second mic drop last year that simply read “Claude is AI for all of us. Anthropic.”
