Facebook and Google advertising is run by machines and that’s a good thing

venturebeat | September 26, 2019

Google and Facebook’s advertising platforms are rapidly implementing features that allow almost any advertiser to use algorithmic campaign management to optimize their campaigns. If you’ve been buying advertising from Google and Facebook over the last few years and trying to beat their algorithms, you probably knew that already. Both platforms are actively pushing advertisers toward algorithmic campaign management. New, machine learning-driven features have been rolling out every quarter or so for a while. What’s changed is how efficient the algorithms have become at buying media. Just in the last month or so, Google has rolled out Value Bidding, Similar Audiences, Ad Groups, Media Library, and Asset Reporting. Two of those new features (Value Bidding, similar to Facebook’s value bidding, aka “target return on ad spend”) take significant advertising management tasks out of the hands of humans and give them over to the algorithm aka “the machines.”
