Two women looking at a laptop. IDC (International Data Corporation) recently published an IDC Spotlight sponsored by Adobe, Beyond Human Limits: The Future of Creative Content with GenAI Inside, which examines how generative AI empowers marketing teams to deliver business impact through content.
For many marketing professionals, a key bottleneck to execution is the sheer amount of assets needed to drive campaigns across countless channels, formats, audiences, and languages. Luckily, generative AI is uniquely suited to unlock the promise of personalization at scale through content.
Savvy CMOs and their teams need tools to help them work smarter and feed the content beast. IDC predicts that by 2029, generative AI will assume 42 percent of traditional marketing’s mundane work and, what’s more, boost marketing productivity by over 40 percent.
Those numbers are astounding. But not all generative AI strategies and platforms are created equal. Marci Maddox, research vice president at IDC, is upfront about marketers’ concerns: “Adoption is not without its challenges.” By implementing AI tools that prioritize responsibility, ethics, and security, forward-thinking leaders can take advantage of the speed and productivity boosts AI promises, all while driving both top-line revenue growth and bottom-line optimization.
