The first installment in season #2 of Digital Talk, dives into the five ways in which I believe artificial intelligence is revolutionising the digital marketing landscape.
Over the past eight months, I’ve had the pleasuring of working at Max Kelsen, the software engineering studio with a focus on big data and machine learning. At the agency, I’m exposed to a multitude of real-world machine learning developments that are re-purposing digital strategies across organisations.
