Fortune’s new Fortune Intelligence section, launched this month, is pitchable against all odds. Contract editor Nick Lichtenberg is officially the pitch contact there.
ServiceNow has launched a special report on Fortune to jumpstart strategic spending on AI, illustrating workarounds for implementation problems, and otherwise illuminating the path to

You may know John Kell as the author of Fortune’s weekly newsletter, CIO Intelligence. You’d be right, but John’s work also shows up in Fast Company and Business Insider. Few other freelancers have such impact.

Fortune sure does churn through the journalists. In the ten months since we last studied its masthead, 19 editors have departed, while 16 arrived. That’s roughly a 25 percent turnover rate.

In the latest installment of Sound Thinking...David Strom, a well-known IT reporter and security expert, discusses the threat of AI tricking security systems and luring them to catastrophe. What will that mean to editors? When will it happen? It’s not an if, it’s a when.
Good vision here from Jay Lauf. Interestingly, Jay suggests that B2B publishing will become a service business to B2B pros, providing value directly to individuals and organizations. Static content is dying very quickly. This is the point of the analysis from this great media organization.
