Marketing and Marketing Tech Quote-of-the-Week!
Advertising isn’t going away. People want to be informed about products that can make their lives better, but with AI content consumption, I suspect there will be some awkward period where society is trying to find an appropriate balance, and I don’t suspect we will land on an “Everything is AI” content-scape. In the long run, I think AI will be assistive—more people will have more access to more content that they like more because more people will be able to make it more cheaply.

MarTech Q&A of The Week
A widespread myth about AI in marketing is that it’s about efficiency and cost-cutting, which is why so many fear it will replace jobs, especially in content creation and creative roles. I believe AI should be viewed as a revenue generator, not a job eliminator. It enables strategic marketers to work more effectively, freeing them up to focus on creative thinking and innovation.
