SPECIAL SERIES: How to Avoid AI Slop in Brand Creative with Michael Horton, Co-Founder of Slate & Adam Creeger, CTO at Slate

from The Marketing Millennials · host Daniel Murray

Everyone's talking about AI slop. But is it really an AI problem, or is it a tool problem? Adam Creeger, CTO at Slate, and Michael Horton, co-founder and CEO, have seen this from every angle, from Meta's video feed to the social media managers creating content on the fly for major brands. And their take is refreshingly honest: most tools right now just aren't built for professionals who actually care about quality. And they break down the 80/20 framework for AI content creation, why AI should handle the tedious 80% so you can spend more time perfecting the last 20% that actually makes content stand out. Plus, why brand guardrails in AI aren't about limiting creativity, they're more like a GPS that lets you take the scenic route and still find your way back. If you're a Marketer who wants to use AI to create better content without sacrificing your brand voice, this is the episode for you.
