For most teams, AI is becoming an extra set of hands, such as creating content, emerging insights, and helping to streamline daily tasks.
We spoke to marketers at Allsaints, Chats of Cats and Hubspot to explore how AI is actually used on the ground and where the next biggest opportunity lies.
Below are five important use cases that emerge in the areas of affiliate marketing and performance marketing.

One of the biggest and most immediate uses of AI is to generate copy and creatives at almost cleverly fast.
Whether it’s an ad, landing page, or partner-specific messaging, AI tools can help teams test more ideas and personalize content without starting from scratch.
