AI: The future of social media?

AI this. AI that. You have probably heard the term AI being thrown around quite a bit over the last few weeks. It seems that lately, AI is the talk of the town in the digital space…

If you aren’t familiar with AI, it stands for Artificial Intelligence and whether you knew it or not, it has actually been around for a while. To keep it simple, AI is where machines learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Take Alexa, Siri, or even self-driving cars for example. They are all forms of AI.

However, you may be wondering, what does AI have to do with social media or marketing though? Well honestly, it has the power to change the marketing landscape quite drastically. Don’t worry though, this isn’t a bad thing at all!
