The AI Turning Point Every Fractional CMO Needs to See Coming

The primary sources that marketers have relied on for years are quietly disappearing from AI. News organizations, forums, and media companies are locking down their content from the bots that power the tools everyone is rushing to adopt. What that means for how you serve clients, and for your own relevance, is something most fractional CMOs haven't thought through yet. This episode digs into why the AI tools your clients are counting on are about to get a lot less useful for real market intelligence, and what that creates for the fractional CMO who's paying attention. The more AI promises to replace human judgment, the more the humans who actually understand markets become irreplaceable.
