How my take on AI in PR has evolved: listen in

After listening to myself talk in this podcast, I realized how far my thinking about AI in PR has evolved since I last wrote about it here.

This short episode of Stories & Strategies is a great summary of my current take on the topic. We covered:

3:36 – examples of PR pros using AI to double their productivity and work less

8:28 – the dilemma of valuing ourselves by the time/effort our work requires

12:36 – the reality that most PR pros are NOT achieving major productivity gains with AI, and why

18:40 – why I don’t use AI to write this newsletter, and counsel clients against using it to write pitches

I recommend setting the playback to 1.25x or so. Or, if you prefer reading, you can check out the transcript.

Many thanks to host Doug Downs for inviting me on.
