Meta plans to leverage AI to completely automate the ad creation and targeting process by the end of 2026, promising efficiency and cost savings. Experts like Linda Orr emphasize the potential benefits such as boosting marketing productivity, especially for startups that often have limited budgets. However, there are significant challenges including accuracy and hallucination issues that could jeopardize advertising campaigns, emphasizing the need for careful implementation. The debate centers on the balance between AI's capabilities and its current limitations in ensuring brand integrity.
'As teams engage with these tools, they often gain a clearer understanding of how different ad elements perform, which can sharpen their broader marketing instincts,' Mandell said.
'The concept is great and I love it, but we're not there yet with the technology,' she said.
'The risks are money lost, or you ruin your brand's reputation,' said Orr.
Problems can increase substantially if a model veers into false advertising, Orr added.
