Raising AI: Circle of Fellows No. 107
by: Shel Holtz, SCMP, ABC, IABC Fellow

The headline highlights how Google’s Olympics ad went viral for all the wrong reasons, intensifying concerns about the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in both personal and professional settings. To help navigate this new landscape, Gartner’s Peer Insights provides reviews and ratings of generative AI apps. Additionally, Capgemini’s second edition report, Harnessing the Value of Generative AI, explores how generative AI benefits organizations worldwide. But what are strategic communication professionals doing with generative AI? How does it enhance the communication function? And most importantly, what are they learning? Gain insights from a distinguished panel of IABC Fellows in this installment of Circle of Fellows.
