“In our professional but also in our personal lives, we are all starting to see Artificial Intelligence play a growing role. From a public relations and communications perspective, this presents definite opportunities but also challenges – the opportunities will be best met and the challenges best addressed by applying a balanced mix of sound judgment and human intelligence” said Justin Green, President Global Alliance.
