In the final module of our course, we look at the 3 phases of AI marketing trends and how you can seamlessly integrate them into everyday consumer interactions. From AI social listening all the way to Deepfakes, we see how technology can either be used to enhance consumer concerns and paranoia or feed the demand for targeted, personalized marketing that is specific to the individual.

AI is already making huge impacts across multiple industries and will alter the course of human and brand interactions forever. Clearly there’s a need for brands to leverage AI marketing trends to stay ahead of the curve and become part of this movement.

Facial Billboard
