Think of it like a self-updating campaign that learns from friction points, adjusts its targeting or messaging, and automatically improves the next touchpoint-no need to wait for a quarterly review or manually rebuild segments. Systems that can self-correct based on real outcomes are what turn automation into autonomy."
