Consumers and AI: Learning From Past Tech Cycles, Shaping the Future.
AI is quickly reshaping consumer behaviors and marketing strategies. The pace of change seems head-spinning, but there’s a lot to learn from previous tech cycles. In this data-packed and inspirational presentation, Debra will highlight the incredible advances that were sparked by broadband internet access, social media and the mobile phone. She will share new data on how consumers are using and engaging with AI. Debra will also reveal the one word that links each tech cycle and that should guide marketing strategies in the future.
Due to technical limitations, we are not offering an online attendance option for this month’s luncheon. See you in-person at Ivar’s Salmon House!
