Today’s emerging technologies have redefined the business universe, introducing new possibilities, challenges, and consumer expectations. To thrive in this dynamic environment, workforces must be equipped to seize the opportunities offered by data, analytics, and AI technologies.
With 67% of organizations expecting to invest more in AI over the next three years, companies appear eager to harness the power of AI. Still, unlocking the full value of this investment will require workforces with the knowledge and skills to apply these technologies effectively across business functions. As companies explore the potential of a more data-driven, AI-powered future in their industries, there are several questions they should consider.
How are you leveraging data and AI to deliver more personalized experiences to your audience?
Personalization ranks high among the consumer expectations that today’s technologies have elevated from desirable to imperative, with 71% of consumers expecting communications and products/services to be personally relevant to them. AI tools can help companies transform data related to consumer preferences and behavior into measurable impact across business areas—including marketing, content creation, customer service, and distribution. By offering personalized experiences that resonate with individual consumers, companies can enhance engagement, accessibility, content discoverability, subscriber retention, and customer satisfaction.
In what ways are you exploring AI to enhance your content creation process and boost productivity?
AI-powered tools can automate many of the administrative tasks that draw creative professionals away from creative pursuits. The Associated Press (AP), for example, is using AI to generate earnings reports, freeing writers to focus on more high-level projects.
Just a few of the ways companies are using AI technologies in content creation include generating ideas for content, performing research, understanding of the audience, synthesizing information, translating copy, and designing visual elements. AI tools can also serve as production assistants, managing many of the logistical details related to production projects and reducing video production times.
How are you utilizing AI to derive audience insights to inform your content strategy and business decisions?
With AI-powered audience analytics driven by capabilities such as sentiment analysis, companies can anticipate customer churn and make more informed decisions to increase audience engagement, content discoverability, and subscriber retention. Companies can also implement AI technologies to inform the deployment of technology-enabled strategies for boosting revenue, such as dynamic paywalls and dynamic pricing. In addition, by leveraging predictive analytics, they can optimize content, release schedules, and distribution channels.
Which areas of your operations do you see as prime candidates for data-driven efficiency improvements?
Through automation, and with the ability to process vast volumes of data in real time, AI can help companies improve processes and streamline business functions ranging from marketing and customer service to compliance. A recent survey found that 53% of businesses use AI for process automation. Other business functions that AI tools can help professionals handle more efficiently include transcription, content distribution, translation, and compliance review.
In what ways can AI support your efforts to protect your content from piracy and unauthorized use?
In the digital age, identifying and addressing IP infringements is especially critical, and AI technologies can both complicate and mitigate these threats. AI tools equipped with natural language processing and image recognition capabilities can be instrumental in limiting piracy by detecting unauthorized use of copyrighted or trademarked content across platforms. Companies can employ anti-piracy AI tools and watermarking technologies to continuously monitor the internet, flag places where their digital content appears, and take action on users and sites that are engaging with unauthorized content.
How do you envision AI supporting your quality control processes, from fact-checking to content moderation?
Manual review of posts is not sufficient for ensuring the veracity, relevance, and appropriateness of content at the volume and pace demanded today. AI-powered content moderation tools augment the efforts of human moderators at the velocity needed in today’s climate of rapid content generation. By automating the monitoring and filtering of content, these technologies help companies minimize the dissemination of harmful, false misleading, or offensive messaging.
