Hear it yourself
"to relinquish control to AI. Perfect example, marketing. Right? Anything that is required to train a marketing model is already on public domain. By definition, marketing is public domain. Right? If you didn't market it, it's on public domain. So I have the best training data in marketing. I don't need to train an AI model with more marketing content. I may need to train it for tone of voice and what my brand is, and I'm pretty sure an AI model, if I throw my marketing collateral into it, will tell me. This is not consistent with your brand."
