Generative AI transforms consumer behavior and monetization

The shift from ‘searching’ to ‘asking’ with Gen-AI tools like ChatGPT is disrupting monetization and ads on search engines, social platforms, and media. As consumers embrace Gen-AI, digital players can capture attention in more human-like ways, unlocking new revenue streams and enhancing personalization and relevance.

Automated self-serve ad platforms

Ad platforms have relied on algorithms for years, but activating campaigns has still required manual effort. Now, with Generative AI, anyone can launch an ad campaign without being a marketing pro. Media platforms are introducing AI tools to streamline content creation and campaign setup, reducing human effort and boosting performance through new features like conversational assistants.

AI-powered content activation

Platform and media companies have massive B2B and B2C marketing programs to drive user acquisition and customer lifetime value, requiring huge amounts of time, effort, and resources. Gen AI offers an opportunity to reinvent the entire content supply chain and deliver truly personalized, relevant, and performant content for their customer cohorts at scale, with less human effort.

B2B sales and service reinvention with AI as a co-pilot

With AI, platform and media companies can completely reinvent their B2B sales and service programs to drive revenue, reduce churn, and gain efficiencies. Gen AI enables real-time and predictive insights as well as ‘co-pilots’ to assist human sales and service representatives, making every customer interaction more proactive, intelligent, and relevant.
