On this episode, I sit down with Steve Bevilacqua, Principal Consultant at Cella by Randstad Digital, for a candid conversation about what AI is actually doing inside marketing organizations today. We dig into the gap between executive expectations and real-world adoption, why leaders need to be hands-on with AI instead of simply directing others to use it, and how marketing teams can avoid creating bland, homogenized content. Along the way, we share a few laughs about six-fingered AI images, caveman prompting, and why AI should be viewed as a powerful tool rather than a replacement for human creativity. It’s a practical, entertaining look at where AI delivers value today and where marketers still need to keep a human in the loop.

But the biggest lesson from this World Cup is not that brands need to shout louder, it is that promotional activity performs best when it reflects how people actually experience the tournament.
