Abstract

This paper delves into the transformative era of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in marketing, underscoring the vast potential of AI to revolutionise marketing strategies through enhanced personalisation and efficiency while highlighting the rapid adoption rate among companies and marketing professionals. Despite the enthusiasm, it navigates through the apprehensions surrounding job displacement, misinformation and brand safety, offering a comprehensive guide to the strategic adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) with a view to harnessing its benefits without compromising brand integrity. It identifies common pitfalls in AI adoption, such as lack of preparation, myopic focus on current use cases, and neglect of strategic planning, emphasising the importance of a thoughtful, multi-disciplinary approach to AI integration. This includes viewing AI as an assistive tool rather than an end goal, understanding its implications for media, fostering internal leadership, and establishing stringent brand protection guardrails. The paper concludes with a call to action for marketers to embrace AI with strategic foresight, leveraging its revolutionary potential to drive innovation while steadfastly upholding ethical standards and brand values.
