When we think of AI, I bet a lot of movies come to your mind like the movie AI with Haley Joel Osment or Transformers, or Terminator. But what AI is, and what it can do for us, in the various ways we use it at our agency is not entirely Artificial Intelligence on its own, it does require human programing and implementation when we use AI in Marketing. Let us explain how AI applies to Marketing, what you should look for, and how to use it to your advantage.
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation or approximation of human intelligence in machines. AI can make decisions & complete tasks like generating content or messages.
AI Marketing allows businesses and organizations to extract a large range of data from people. It automates decision-making processes in marketing. This means, it involves utilizing AI technologies such as: chat bots, Siri, automated email delivery, website pop ups, and Google Ads. AI Marketing uses technology to collect and analyze consumer data, observe audience behavior and economic trends that impact initiatives. Particularly in digital marketing, where speed is crucial, AI is programmed to streamline lead generation efforts.
According to Zippia, 79% of businesses say AI helps increase revenue. AI technologies help create customer profiles based on data gathered from their purchase history and interactions. This data collection allows Marketers to then deliver targeted advertisements, promotions, and new products that align with customers’ preferences.
The Pros of AI Marketing
- Break-through writer’s block.

- Enhanced customer service and support.
- Save time, increase productivity and ROI.
The Cons of AI Marketing
- Lack of human touch and creativity.

- Only as good as input.
- Duplicate content / sounds too similar.
On occasion, machine learning algorithms can provide results that are unfairly in favor or against someone or something. Lacks critical thinking & decision–making abilities that humans have. AI doesn’t have the “human-check” logic to know if the information it’s stringing together makes sense. AI tools have limitations; Doesn’t necessarily provide up-to-date information so use carefully, fact check and don’t overly rely on AI.
