Episode 42: Chapters with Paul: AI in Marketing

Paul Furiga, our Chief Storyteller and host, is back in the hot seat. In this episode, Tara and Paul discuss the impacts of AI on the marketing and PR industries. They share how large language models (LLMs) are trained, the risks of using free versions of AI tools for thought leadership, how to efficiently and properly utilize AI in marketing and PR, why AI cannot replace professional workers, and what trusted resources are out there for professionals in the marketing and PR industries navigating the world of AI.
Key Takeaways
- While AI is rapidly evolving in marketing, it currently serves as a powerful assistant rather than a complete replacement for human creativity and connection.
- Free AI tools may come with risks regarding data ownership and copyright, making paid versions potentially more suitable for protecting intellectual property.
- AI can be effectively utilized in marketing for tasks like research, outlining content, and improving efficiency, but requires human oversight for accuracy and strategic application.
- Staying informed about AI trends through reliable sources is crucial in this rapidly changing landscape.
- Ultimately, successful business and marketing still rely on human-to-human connection and understanding, which should guide the adoption and use of AI tools.
