This session aims to accelerate your understanding of what the tech has to offer and why you should care.​​​​​​​

    Synopsis 

    A new generation of AI-driven creative tools (think ChatGPT for text, and DALL-E 2 and Mid Journey for image generation) has made headlines around the world, intensifying the debate about the automation of creativity and the implications for brands, agencies and the people they employ. Whether you believe in art or algorithms, understanding the creative – and commercial – potential is an essential part of any marketers toolkit.
