There is no doubt that artificial intelligence (AI) is already impacting the world of marketing. From ChatGPT to chatbots, AI is more common than most of us realise but do we really understand what the future looks like?
Our round table discussion is hosted by thought leader, visionary designer and sought-after AI expert Lucy Batley who will use her knowledge and experience to guide us through this hot topic.
We’ll explore exactly what AI is and how it can be used to amplify your marketing efforts. Our conversation will cover practical guidance on areas where you could start implementing AI, for example content generation and data analytics and discuss the benefits of embracing AI, not just for your business, but more importantly for your customers. We will also look at how a structured approach to AI will help you achieve your goals and how this new world will have an impact on the skills you need in your marketing team to deliver your marketing strategy.
Whilst this event is primarily for the benefit of our members who want to learn about AI in marketing, we encourage members with experience in this area to attend to share their practical knowledge.
Our round tables are shaped by your views and experience, so whilst we hope to cover the topics above, we may discuss other subjects related to the topic during the session.
