AI Enhances Human Creativity and Boosts Event Value
Whirlwind trip to #Dreamforce25 this week, amazing to get time with friends, hang at 6sense 's #Club6 , talk agentic marketing with CMOs at the Qualified breakfast, then hang with the one and only Brent Adamson at his book signing. Three quick takeaways: Live events matter, perhaps more than ever. Connections made and enriched between sessions, meals, coffee, etc. will always be important, no matter how much we automate and digitize. AI done right makes us more human, not less. Most copywriters HATE to write, what they really want to do is edit. Much of what we do is both art and science. Automate the science, focus more on the art. A lesser thought-of benefit to AI in your org is employee satisfaction and retention. Helping your people focus on the right work, the best work. Where in your org, for example, is there friction or repetitive frustration? Start there.
