S4 Capital's CEO, Sir Martin Sorrell, highlights the impact of AI on the advertising industry, prompting a shift in pricing strategies. Marketers, motivated by rising costs and the need for efficiency, are questioning agency fees in light of AI reducing management time. The industry is transitioning from traditional billing methods to output-based pricing models, which focus on results instead of hours worked. However, the adoption of AI remains cautious, with many companies opting for gradual integration through workshops and pilot programs rather than immediate changes.
