BuzzFeed's recent $82.5 million sale of First We Feast signifies a strategic shift towards positioning itself as a media powerhouse leveraging AI in its operations.
CEO Jonah Peretti emphasized that this sale is part of a larger transformation aimed at capitalizing on the AI revolution and optimizing BuzzFeed's services.
The deal allows BuzzFeed to address its $123.5 million debt while maintaining a positive cash balance, a significant turnaround for the financially troubled media company.
