Bias in data and AI is omnipresent, from machines making biased hiring recommendations to marketing targeting excluding areas based on race and income, intended or not.
In this eye-opening talk from Trust Insights Chief Data Scientist Christopher Penn, learn what the difference is between human bias and machine bias (and why both matter), the four types of machine bias, how to identify bias in a dataset using common machine learning and data science tools, and industry best-practice tools for keeping your AI models on the rails.
Advertisers are faced with the dual challenge of telling a unique brand story, while honoring an ever-changing formula that ensures their message ranks, trends or optimizes. What’s an advertiser to do? Machines have created a standardized version of our world today, saving us time, budget and energy in the process.
Data and AI are key; however, without a solid foundation of creativity, your messaging will be unsuccessful. Only advertisers who blend creativity with AI will achieve success.

We live in a hyper-connected world where virtually everything we do leaves a digital trace. From our connected devices to what we buy, watch, listen to and search, there is little left to the imagination. Brands have spent the last decade capturing as many of those interactions as possible in an effort to build brand loyalty and gain competitive advantage.
As we move into the next decade, consumer interaction with data and devices will increase exponentially, creating new opportunities for brands to engage. The good news is, AI and machine learning technologies will allow us to more effectively harness all that data and drive more, and deeper insights out of it than ever before. In this Course, understand how AI is changing our relationship with data and how you can leverage it to drive real results for your business.
AI is changing the face of email marketing for marketers, consumers and email service providers. Unfortunately, many marketers are leaving money on the table by neglecting to optimize their email programs to compete in today's environment.
In this Course, examine the ways email marketing is changing, and how you can use AI and automation to put your data to work for you.

Governance is boring, and no one wants to own it. But the success of any information program depends on thoughtful and deliberate decision making.
Every project involving ecommerce, user experience or more broadly digital transformation requires measurement of outcomes at multiple levels. This process allows for validation of course corrections and ongoing improvement based on data rather than opinion.
In this Course, attendees explore:
Companies have traditionally lacked a good way to get insight into their markets. They’ve relied on research firms and internal teams to gather competitive intelligence manually, despite the time-consuming effort that left little time to analyze and act on that research. The explosion of online data combined with AI-powered technology paves the way to gather competitive intelligence programmatically and help companies extract actionable insights in ways that were previously impossible.
This Course dives into the actionable insights you can gather using competitive intelligence technology and how to establish an impactful CI program for your business.
As people traverse the Internet, they leave behind a trail of data. This data exhaust can be harnessed with machine learning to model human behavior in great detail—for both positive and negative purposes. As Netflix, Amazon and Google all know, if you want to understand people, you monitor how they spend their time, money and attention.
This Course shares methods for harnessing data from human activity, and how it can be synthesized and placed in simulated environments to test messaging, identify likely reactions to price changes, pinpoint product preferences, and predict behavior changes based on factors like seasonality and economic conditions.
There is evidence that these synthetic models can be better predictors of future behavior than focus groups and surveys. Learn how to harness this data for your organization.
The continuous proliferation of marketing and sales technology in general, and AI specifically, represents both a tremendous opportunity and significant barrier for growth-oriented organizations. Research from Gartner, SiriusDecision, CSO and more highlights that increased technology investments are not translating to improved performance.
Top concerns from marketing and sales leaders focus on identifying ways to simplify tech stacks, and gain greater proficiency and traction. Simply put, they’re looking for real-world methodologies that can quickly accelerate growth outcomes without increasing the cost or risks they are exposed to.
As the utilization of AI in the martech stack has matured, key factors for success are becoming clear. In his work and interviews with hundreds of companies, Doug Davidoff highlights the five critical factors that successful implementations follow. He discusses some of the most common mistakes, shares how to avoid them and provides the milestones to help you build your roadmap to success.
Recent advancements in natural language generation have made it possible to craft 100% unique long-form articles from scratch.

Participants in this beginner-oriented session will learn about different approaches to NLG, their benefits and drawbacks, and where they are best suited.

Under such influence, customers expect a personalized experience from every brand, at every touch point. To compound the challenge, the California Consumer Privacy Act and other similar laws going into force amid poor systems integration make it difficult for marketers to deliver contextually-relevant content to current customers, much less unknown prospective buyers.
Let's discuss the critical need to unify your current customer data and capitalize on personalization in order to reduce digital operations expenses, while scaling success across all customer experience efforts.
As a marketer, you have undoubtedly felt the pressure to ensure that your content is leading to increased traffic, engagement, retention and, ultimately, your organization's overall business objectives. AI can help here, but only if you have the right fundamentals in place.

Traditional marketing is all human, all the time. But, the landscape has changed. Leading brands know that in order to deliver the personalization and experiences modern consumers expect, marketing must become smarter. It must become marketer + machine.
AI doesn’t replace marketers, it augments your knowledge and capabilities. AI gives you superpowers. It’s time to discover yours.
