Why and how communicators should embrace artificial intelligence
Relax, robots are not taking your job. New technologies can ease industry professionals’ daily duties and open the door to greater career achievements. Just breathe—and read on.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is finding its way into customer service, online search and even the crafting of articles.
All this gives rise to a new phenomenon for communicators: “content intelligence.”
