 MarTech QnA with the Expert
One of the biggest misconceptions right now, especially with generative AI having its moment, is that martech can replace the need for human marketers. The reality is, while technology can automate certain processes and improve efficiency, many areas still require the irreplaceable human touch to create and execute in-depth marketing strategies. Technology is not coming for our jobs! As new technologies integrate into our workplaces and begin to take on the more mundane, repetitive tasks all businesses face, marketers can focus more on what matters: the evolving needs of our customers and providing them with the best services possible. –Lisa Matherly, CMO at Cobalt
