Three companies revolutionising advertising with AI

As AI technology continues to revolutionise the advertising industry, we look at how IBM, Google and Salesforce are driving forward AI in advertising

Four years ago, Lexus released an advertisement scripted completely by AI using IBM Watson which analysed 15 years of different car ads. To make the advert successful, the AI system identified which elements of successful ads resonated most with audiences.

Now, AI is quickly becoming an important part of the advertising industry as it is being used to identify and segment audiences, build ad creativity, test ads, improve ad performance, and optimise spending.

AI specialist Andrew Ng in his AI for Everyone course, stated that AI and advertising is a major business opportunity.
