#33: The Responsible AI Manifesto, the Meta AI Tool That Might Be Your New AI Assistant, and the First Marketing AI Job Listing

This week on The Marketing AI Show, the guys discuss responsible AI, do a deeper dive into Meta’s CICERO (after a short discussion in Ep. 25 of the podcast), and the job posting Mike came across for an AI Marketing Specialist. Is this the first? 
A manifesto for responsible AI—for companies to use for themselves
Last week on the Marketing AI Institute blog, you may have seen our Responsible AI Manifesto for Marketing and Business. In it, Paul lays out the 12 principles that we’re using to guide us in the responsible use of AI within our organization. From this blog post and Paul’s subsequent LinkedIn post, we received feedback, comments, and some praise on taking this step. Much of the feedback asked if we had considered a certain principle, or questioned one of the bullet points in the article. On the podcast, Paul and Mike walk through each principle and break down their thoughts and how businesses and marketing leaders can use this document to create a manifesto of their own.
What is CICERO…and what are the implications?
In November 2022, Meta AI introduced CICERO, the first AI to play at a human level in Diplomacy, a strategy game that requires building trust, negotiating, and cooperating with multiple players…essentially trying to make it fundamentally honest and collaborative. Is there a place for CICERO in business and life? Will AI assistants be able to help us negotiate and navigate through life? Many of these questions touch on conversations Paul has had, and posts he’s shared: there’s a much bigger story to these AI developments, and the implications for business and society are huge.
The first (that we’ve seen) AI marketing job listing
Tomorrow.io’s CMO Dan Slagen shared his company’s most recent job posting for an AI Marketing Specialist. The good news is that this is a junior role, and years of experience aren’t needed. It’s interesting and exciting that one function of this role will be to stay up to date on the latest AI developments and learn to pilot and scale AI programs as they learn. What a great way for businesses to stay ahead of the AI curve and bring on interested, enthusiastic talent.
This podcast episode ends with rapid-fire questions talking about Big Tech’s Q1 earnings calls, updates on Microsoft and Bing, ChatGPT breaking records, and Runway Gen-1’s big announcement.
