She was speaking at the company's most recent Upfront event, where it unveils its latest shows. The streaming firm was showcasing “a new modular framework for ad formats that leverages generative AI to instantly marry advertisers’ ads with the worlds of our shows,” Reinhard said.

Shabana Mahmood faces revolt over her asylum changes
DAILY MAIL “For the millions in this country who want an end to unchecked illegal migration, Shabana Mahmood’s proposals for a Danish-style asylum system are a decent start.
