Netflix’s $3B ads plan, TikTok’s US ownership shift, OpenAI tests ads

Netflix says ads are booming—but are viewers actually watching more? Kate Scott-Dawkins and Jeff Foster dig into Netflix’s latest earnings: ~$3B in projected ad revenue for 2026, 325M paid memberships, and a surprisingly modest lift in hours watched. We unpack what that gap could mean for advertisers, why big IP (including Warner Bros. Discovery/WBD) suddenly looks even more valuable, and where Netflix may go next on content and sports. Plus: what P&G’s results suggest about a more disciplined year for CPG ad spend, the latest on TikTok’s new U.S. ownership structure (and the still-open questions around the algorithm), and OpenAI/ChatGPT testing ads—with an early focus on transparency and user control. We explore: Netflix’s 2026 ad revenue guidance (~$3B) and what it takes to scale a young ad business. Why 96B hours watched in 2H 2025 only grew ~2%—and the “attention per member” problem. Content strategy and competition: ~$18B implied 2026 content spend, sports optionality, and the pull of major franchise libraries (WBD). P&G earnings and why the company isn’t planning a big media ramp—what that signals for CPG budgets in 2026. TikTok’s U.S. divestment outcome: who owns what, what likely stays the same for advertisers, and how pressure is rising on social platforms globally. OpenAI begins testing ads: early guardrails, what “AI-native” advertising could look like, and why this launch matters.
