Yeah pretty much, and it's not that hard to create one for yourself. Prepare for social media 2.0, where 99% of content will be just AI spam videos trying to sell you stuff. There'll probably be some sort of moderation by the platforms themselves

The whole interview could have stopped at the host’s question “Is that good for the world?”

Well they will probably learn the hard way... Once they get to a point where internet is dominated by plain crappy content and that's the same garbage they start feeding to ai, the results won't even be good enough and a lot of clients will just start rejecting this type of content. It's karma in play quite literally and figuratively.

When the highly qualified interviewer (Steve Bertoni) asked several questions, Mr. Jones was too evasive for comfort. ONE EXAMPLE: time 17:49 , Mr. Jones volunteered "We created the world's first AI chatbot for an influencer in 2015" and when Mr. Bertoni asked "What was the chatbot like?" The response was evasion, Mr. Jones never answered the question. And there was a pattern of that with other questions posed by the interviewer. It sort of undermines someone who evades simple questions, particularly when they themselves offered up information that, when pressed on it, behave evasively. I don't trust the guy. He does not come off well. The fact is, you CAN be in the sales/marketing profession and be forthright and reliable. 100% can be. .

These AI ads are only good (for now) in a very specific type of digital ad.. Feed based, "Product catalog" type ads. Dynamically changing the creative around the product photos instead of a white background. Ai cannot (yet) effectively create quality standard awareness or consideration, brand focused "story-telling" type ads. This is the bottom of funnel, last step, "buy-now" type ads you see after all of that. Which is great. But don't get it twisted with the type of ads most of us viewers are thinking of.

I never thought I would miss old TV and magazine ads, but people like him made me do it. This is terrible for both the consumers and companies. If every piece of content we see is an ad, we will not buy it anymore, people get overwhelmed with choice and tired of getting spammed. We desperately need an ad-free space on the internet again.

What’s stopping the advertising platforms from implementing this themselves and cutting them out? The endgame would have to be to become an advertising platform themselves, right?

You're right. Look at what simple websites did to the old-time legacy TV channels - particularly the news. A simple website can 'disintermediate' a large TV broadcast. It has already happened. There are many websites with news feeds and the "cutting the cord" issue with TV is well known. Here's where it's headed. Everyone will have their own AI system creating content for them/about them and their business, and collecting information for them. Your personal AI system will be set up by you: 1) "here is what I want published online over the next 7 days: this stuff for my personal life, and this stuff (ads, offers, etc) for my business" [THIS IS YOUR AI-GENERATED OUTPUT] 2) "here is what I want collected over the next day/week (list of things you need info on, summarized in a 'Cliff Notes' style) [THIS IS YOUR AI-GATHERED/COLLECTED/GENERATED INPUT to your life] Many large businesses can be neutralized, just like the TV broadcast stations have been/are being neutralized (disintermediated) It seems unlikely that marketing agencies can escape this. Can anyone create a website today in under 1 hour? Yes, if the person teaches themselves how to do it, and the free tools to use. AI will enable a full menu of options for anyone to do anything online: buy, sell, advertise, create interesting content. if the person teaches themselves how to do it, and the free tools to use. .

This is likel the path going forward. There's no unique algorithm or service that this company is providing other than aggregation, however, for smaller businesses/brands that can't afford to create it in-house, the app will serve fine. It's like AWS: if you're a large corporation, you have your own servers, but if you're not, they've got you by the balls

Democratization is the general trend. We went from a centralized ice making to home freezers. The same will be true with AI services and is a simultaneous separate race. The innovation though will first come from the centralized cloud computing like what this guy is doing because AI is best in the cloud for now. But as the hardware manufactures race to meet the needs of edge AI, then what this guy is doing will move to the edge. Then when this happens, centralization will normalize back to just data again.

Good question asked about future prospects for university graduates

David insights into generative AI's role in advertising are eye-opening! As the industry evolves, those who master prompt engineering and understand AI-driven analytics will likely lead the next wave of innovative content creators 🚀.

the result will be templated AI nonsense.

To me I see AI like not organic thought. I kinda just want real raw people input. I'm scared the two will mesh together quickly and we won't have a choice. My searches, views, and tools available should allow me to turn off AI easily. Plus the jobs lost, our minds will not need to work that hard, something else can do it for us. I am not saying AI is bad, I'm saying my view sees one side for now. It doesn't look good to me. But I don't know everything, I know that.
