    The current state of generative AI
    Generative AI is currently being leveraged by content creation teams for keyword research and content ideation. However, generative AI inputs require a lot of thought to produce high-quality output, and AI still falls short when it comes to producing content humans want to read.

    Improving content creation with AI via guided prompts
    By breaking down the desired piece into smaller sections and providing specific examples of what is needed, it is possible to generate good content. Even so, this strategic prompt engineering process may not always be significantly faster than writing the article manually.

    Driving growth and customer acquisition with AI
    AIs ability to collect information for deep personalization in outreach efforts is useful for account-based marketing and improves conversions. AI also facilitates faster research on companies and individuals and accelerates the identification of correlations and patterns in data.

    AI workflow automation

    The limitations of generative AI tools
    Fact-checking is one area where limitations still exist in AI, though Bard now shows citations. Additionally, maintaining brand consistency poses a challenge as some free tools dont offer the option for those adjustments.

    Anticipating AIs integration into existing martech tools
    The hope is that AI will be integrated into the tools we currently use like CRMs and project management platforms. This integration would enable the seamless exchange of information and knowledge between the tools and eliminate repetitive training across individual systems.
