Generative AI can reduce marketing production expenses by 60%: Mastercard

"The way I define AI is not as artificial intelligence but as augmented intelligence. It is not machine doing things by itself completely independent of people but it is machine creating the output which you can work with and take it to a different level than you could have done before AI came into picture. So AI seems to be a major enhancer of what you can do and that is what is exciting," Rajamannar said.

In the digital era, consumers heavily rely on various touchpoints and extensive research before making purchasing decisions. Consequently, advertisers and marketers face the significant challenge of predicting and influencing consumer choices. However, artificial intelligence (AI) offers marketers a powerful tool to gain deeper insights into their target audience and effectively engage with them.

According to Rajamannar, generative AI enables marketers to articulate their objectives more clearly and invites agencies to work their magic based on that foundation.
