At the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, industry leaders discussed the increasing integration of generative AI in advertising. The consensus is that rather than signaling the industry's decline, AI serves as an important tool for enhancing creativity. Many executives believe the technology can complement human roles, facilitating tasks like generating synthetic personas for targeted communications, and refining content. This marks a shift in discussion from hype to effective implementation, underscoring both AI's potential benefits and its limitations in the advertising landscape.
AI is not going to kill advertising... it's not going to save advertising. We've got to leverage it as a tool, not a replacement.
Fast-forward two years, and the conversation has evolved from novelty to practicality. We’ve moved beyond the hype into implementation.
