Now, here's the bad news, though: 78 percent of people say their employers have zero internal AI education or training. So we've reached peak interest and excitement about AI, but there's a massive gap in the practical tools people have internally at their organizations to actually learn what this stuff is, how to use it in their careers and their roles, and how to get the most out of it.” - Mike Kaput on the 2023 State of Marketing AI Report from the Marketing AI Institute*”All the things humans do really well, I guarantee you, AI will do them at some point if it can't already. The ability to create, to think, to understand, to reason, these are capabilities that may not be at a human level in AI systems today, but they're absolutely on a trajectory to do those things pretty well. All the things that humans value and get paid for is probably stuff that AI will be able to help or do very soon.” - Mike Kaput*”If I look at my average day, six to 12 months ago, none of these tools were in it and helping me do the things I'm doing. It's really been a pretty profound sea change.” - Mike Kaput*”AI in some form or another has been around for 60, 70 years in one sense or another. So people don't realize a lot of things went into the last several decades to get us to this current moment. It feels like it's coming out of nowhere because they weren't paying attention to all the other factors that were building beneath the surface. “ - Mike Kaput*”A lot of people are like, ‘Oh, what tools should I use? What technology should we adopt?’ That's a huge question and really important. More important, though, is what happens if you succeed? Like we're talking about tools that give you double and triple, digit performance gains or productivity gains. That's amazing. But the first question you're going to get from a lot of your staff is, ‘What happens to me? What happens to my role? There's a huge amount of change management involved in these tools. So you're going to have to start planning for how this is going to change jobs.” - Mike KaputTime Stamps[0:12] Introducing “Marketing” AI[4:54] Meet
