Over the past year or so, the evolution of generative Al has drummed up both fear and excitement in equal measures. One thing is certain – it has already completely transformed how we gather, analyse and act on insight.
As with any disruption, distinguishing fact from fiction is paramount. This is especially true in the case of Al, which is having a massive impact in our industry.
While insight teams are eager to understand how Al can truly benefit them, many myths about its capabilities still persist. So let’s explore…

AI will create new job opportunities and enhance existing roles within insight departments, as well as facilitating innovation and efficiency across industries.
AI can uncover deep consumer insights by processing and analysing data at a scale and depth impossible for humans alone, offering nuanced understanding of customer behaviours and preferences. However, enriching the AI-generated data analysis with human interpretation is crucial for a nuanced understanding of consumer insights.
Controlled and customised AI can deliver highly representative insights. However, as humans, we need to control the sources and frame the context to deliver recommendations with more impact.
AI tools are becoming more user-friendly, with interfaces and applications designed to be accessible to non-experts, simplifying complex processes and decision-making.
Advancements in AI ensure data privacy and security, with sophisticated encryption and compliance with international data protection standards safeguarding sensitive information.
AI’s evolving NLP (Natural Language Processing) capabilities offer a nuanced understanding of context, enabling it to interpret and respond to complex queries with an understanding of subtlety and nuance in language.
