Nick Leighton returns to the podcast to discuss the evolving landscape of Generative AI and its impact on marketing and public relations.
Gen AI represents a significant departure from traditional content creation methods, harnessing algorithms to generate original content based on learned patterns from data.
We discuss the rapid growth of Gen AI, challenges and risks associated with its use, the importance of transparency, and the need for ethical responsibilities in leveraging this innovative technology effectively.
Nick aptly characterizes Gen AI as a valuable "co-pilot" for professionals, emphasizing its role in generating fresh ideas, localized content, and innovative storytelling. By leveraging Gen AI as a creative partner, PR professionals can unlock new possibilities and expand their content horizons.
