Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an in-demand innovation that can help supercharge your Content Creation and carries out tasks better, or more quickly than humans. From a strategic viewpoint AI can make marketing strategy, project output, and social media content more efficient by targeting the right customers in the right way. In terms of content creation, AI can create written and image content that converts, with text drawn from a networked analytics web. If you’re using Influencers, AI can help you identify who might match your brand, and AI can be sued to identify customer at risk of being lost, lapsed or potential new prospects.
