About this episode

How is Generative AI reshaping personalized marketing? In this episode, we sit down with Ravi Pal, the Global CTO of Ogilvy One and Verticurl (a WPP Company), to delve into this pivotal question. Ravi, a seasoned technologist, has a wealth of experience in orchestrating enterprise solutions and fostering interactive experiences. His leadership has driven teams to create groundbreaking solutions that merge creativity, technology, and data.

Generative AI has become ubiquitous in the marketing industry, with nearly three-quarters of marketers incorporating it into their workflows. The technology promises to unite disparate data sets, unlocking the personalized marketing that brands desire and customers expect. But, while the potential rewards are substantial, the implementation of Gen AI in marketing is often more experimental than strategic.

In this engaging conversation, Ravi Pal discusses the challenges and opportunities of integrating Gen AI effectively to deliver personalized content that converts potential consumers into long-term customers. We explore key topics such as the importance of high-quality data, the benefits of custom AI models, and the need for balancing AI efficiency with brand uniqueness. Ravi also emphasizes the critical role of AI education across organizations and the importance of transparency and explainability in AI systems.

Join us as we navigate the complexities of Gen AI in marketing and consider whether it can truly fulfill the promise of personalized marketing at scale. Will brands be able to harness this technology to differentiate themselves and build genuine customer connections? Listen in to find out and share your thoughts on this evolving landscape.
