Yahoo Updates DSP With Agentic AI
Yahoo confirmed at CES on Jan. 6 that its demand-side platform is adopting agentic AI capabilities, including AI-assisted campaign activation, proactive troubleshooting, and audience exploration. The company unveiled a "Yours, Mine, and Ours" framework to let advertisers use external models alongside Yahoo's agents, while expanding commerce-media integrations and mid-market focus. Despite technical progress and trader-friendly controls, Yahoo remains a challenger amid Amazon's rapidly scaling DSP and recent layoffs.
