Welcome to the latest updates from the Serial Marketers community.

Official updates:

  • While we have a slew of hot speakers coming up to give hotter takes on AI and marketing, sometimes we’ve gotta get real about what’s happening, and that means looking at how AI is changing our relationships. So what’s it like to date an AI bot at a real-world cafe? Comedian Robin Gelfenbien will share all. RSVP to that and more: https://lu.ma/aimg .

  • The latest AI Insiders session is now live.

    • Featuring Tom Riordan (wordPower, U of Digital), this conversation explores what AI agent adoption really looks like in marketing—where hype outpaces reality, how tools are evolving to plan and execute across systems, and why time savings is just the starting point for measuring AI ROI. Watch the full conversation: https://youtu.be/uheU5BRWvSE

  • The last AI Insiders recording with Emarketer’s Nate Elliott is now live.

    • In this session, new research on AI adoption reveals how people are actually using AI today—from Gen Z leading adoption to why AI isn’t replacing traditional search anytime soon. It also explores what marketers should really be measuring and why AI optimization requires a different approach from SEO. https://youtu.be/YwCojm2gzSQ
