Significant advances in generative AI in recent years have made artificial intelligence a top priority for businesses globally. As a result, large language models (LLMs) have become foundational in powering everything from virtual service agents to online search engines to fraud detection.
In entertainment media, LLMs will be foundational in powering rich search and discovery experiences, but they can’t do it alone. Because LLMs are prediction engines, they require complementary technologies to fact check the results they provide. These technologies improve accuracy, provide contextual relevance, enrich results, and align LLM outputs with real-world knowledge.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is ideal for ensuring that an LLM’s output is a reliable single source of truth facilitating a dynamic connection between an LLM and Gracenote’s knowledge base. This white paper details how MCP facilitates that connection to ensure that search and discovery experiences are rich and personalized, as well as accurate, recent and complete.
TV search and discovery in the AI era
The way people search for information is changing, and that has the potential to help people navigate an increasingly fragmented TV landscape. Without the right data, however, artificial intelligence (AI) will simply reinforce existing perceptions: It can’t be trusted. Now that AI is incorporated into many other tools people use to search for information, usage …
Grounded thinking: Why AI-powered CTV experiences rise or fall on data
Bad data is a real threat. LLMs are powerful tools, but they are only as good as the information they can access.
