About this Event

Dashboards & Decisions: Using AI without Going into AI Autopilot


More data. More tools. More content. But unfortunately, not more time. Sound familiar as a marketer? We know AI can help, but the tricky part is knowing where to hand off the work while holding on to our own judgement.

In this session, we’ll sort marketing process steps into three simple buckets: what can be automated, what needs to stay human, and what works best when people and AI collaborate. Along the way, we’ll share practical ways to cue human decision making in your processes and share how we’ve brought this to life with our marketing dashboard reporting.


What You’ll Walk Away With

  • A simple process for categorizing your marketing tasks.
  • Practical ways (analog and digital) to avoid AI over-reliance.
  • Some real-world examples to inspire your next human-AI work collaboration process.
