AI has had a long and difficult history
“Artificial intelligence
as a name was
reserved for
mysterious stuff
that was beyond the
state of the art.”
—Mark Torrance,
Chief Technology
Officer, Rocket Fuel
A lot of early researchers
overpromised on AI, giving
it a bad rap
As new technologies based
on AI became mainstream,
they were renamed other
things
Computing power has
recently advanced to support
more of AI’s full potential

Some AI isn’t always called AI
“We prefer to think of
machine learning as
‘algorithmic
assistance.’”
—Mike Paquette, Head of
Security Strategy, Elastic
“We call it machine
learning, because I
think [artificial
intelligence]
sometimes can spook
some folks.”
—Mahesh Tyagarajan,
Chief Product Officer,
RichRelevance

So … what are we really talking about?
Neural Networks: Machine learning algorithms trained with specific sets of data
points, which they use to guess at an answer to a query. The network’s guess is then
compared with the correct answer for each data point. If errors occur, the “neurons” are
tweaked and the process repeats itself until the error levels decrease.
Deep Learning: A branch of machine learning concerned with building and training
neural networks with multiple layers. Each layer of a network can find patterns in the
output of the layer above it. Deep networks excel at sorting and classifying data and
identifying anomalies in data patterns.
#eMwebinar
Machine Learning: The branch of AI computing that involves training algorithms to
perform tasks by learning from previous data and examples rather than explicit
commands programmed by humans.

Experimentation and patience are key to success
“The most important thing is to
allow freedom to
experiment, because
nobody within organizations
really understands very well
how an AI should work or what
to expect. And there’s no clear
format that will fit all the
different situations.”
—Alberto Rey Villaverde,
Head of Data Science, easyJet
“Be patient and
understand that AI
takes time to learn the
marketplace. … AI is an
opportunity for growth, and
if you have at least the
content or something right,
data will get you there.”
—Asaf Jacobi, President,
Harley-Davidson of
New York City

And experts have other advice, too
Have a plan: Define an end goal for what you want to
accomplish or a business problem you want to solve.
Be flexible and open to discovering new things along the way;
be as nimble and agile as possible.
Don’t jump into anything too overwhelming all at once.
Do small pilots to test the solution with limited risk.
Test and learn in stages; work the kinks out before launching
at full scale.
Be honest about success and failure, and learn from both.

The same study found that AI-related technologies would create 8.9 million
new US jobs in the same timeframe
54. © 2016 eMarketer Inc.
AI has potential to benefit human workers in
important ways
“[AI lets] the machine do things
it can do very well, but then
allows the human to
bridge that gap. It’s the
human understanding what the
machine is trying to do and
then saying ‘I’m going to help
nudge you so you can do a
better job.’”
—Mahesh Tyagarajan, Chief
Product Officer, RichRelevance
“We’re liberating the marketers
back to the place where they
can drive the marketing
with creativity, with
ideas, and not just by
changing bids and Google
AdWords or scheduling email
campaigns. These are not jobs
for humans. There’s too much
work to be done.”
—Or Shani, Founder and
CEO, Adgorithms

Key takeaways
After years of false starts, conditions are finally right for
mainstream AI adoption. Forecasts vary widely, but all agree
that the market is growing.
AI’s use in marketing is still in early stages, but nearly all
industries are experimenting.
Marketing intelligence, campaign optimization, content
creation, customer experience and brand building are just a few
applications of AI in marketing.
The jury is still out on the long-term effects AI will have on
marketing jobs, but many experts believe it will free up humans
to do more high-value work.
