Position Auctions in AI-Generated Content

We consider an extension to classic position auctions in which sponsored creatives are embedded within AI-generated content rather than shown in predefined slots. Leveraging advanced LLM technologies, it becomes viable to seamlessly integrate sponsored creatives with AI content and accurately estimate the context-aware benefits of differing insertion positions. However, this approach introduces novel challenges; substitution effects require rigorous treatment compared to standard position auction settings, where slots are independent of each other.

Abstract

We consider an extension to classic position auctions in which sponsored creatives are embedded within AI-generated content rather than shown in predefined slots. Leveraging advanced LLM technologies, it becomes viable to seamlessly integrate sponsored creatives with AI content and accurately estimate the context-aware benefits of differing insertion positions. However, this approach introduces novel challenges; substitution effects require rigorous treatment compared to standard position auction settings, where slots are independent of each other.
