What will be the impact of AI on the creative industries, and how can we meet this moment? This is the final episode of my series of interviews over the last few weeks leading up to and through the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. It offers a map for the future based on those conversations, and observations of the speed of change. If you haven't seen it, look up the Volvo ad that was just published on social media. It took one person, 24 hours to create. This ad could not have been made in May, when I started this series of interviews. Creativity and innovation are oxygen for the world's best businesses. Increase the flow and they soar. Limit the supply and they wither and ultimately die. That has been true for longer than anyone reading this has been alive. What is also true is that until now, that creativity, that ability to come up with original ideas that solve problems has been limited to human beings. With the arrival and advances in AI, will that still be true five years from now? Two? Tomorrow? Over the last few weeks, I've interviewed ten different leaders from across the creative industries. Brand leaders, agency founders, global agency heads, global client leads, production experts, creator community experts, consultants, and an advertising industry legend. And while I was at Cannes, I talked to two dozen more about where the creative industries are headed and what they need to do to ensure their future. These industries are a complex eco system of competing and contradictory forces built on what I believe is the worst business model in the world: selling original ideas based on how long it took to conceive and deliver them, and then giving up the ownership and the economic benefit of those ideas forever. It is the equivalent of pricing a Picasso based on how long it took him to paint it. It is selling every patentable idea based on the cost of the labor, while ignoring the impact on people's lives. According to some reports it takes 24 hours to build an iPhone. Imagine if Apple broke that down into a scope of work and then sold each iPhone for the cost of that scope and, with it, the ownership of the IP. For how long would they remain the most valuable business in the world? The daily advances of AI challenge every aspect of the creative industries. From defining and articulating the problem, to conceiving, creating and delivering solutions. Every part of the process is being radically changed. And the extent of that change is limitless. So what should we do about that?

Does your AI do what you need it to do? This episode is part of a series of conversations I've been having in partnership with the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. Over the last few weeks, I've been focusing my study of leadership through a single lens, the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Creative Industries. I'd planned on ending the series with my interview of Sir John Hegarty, but I recorded two bonus episodes during Cannes that I felt were an important part of the conversation. Adam Tucker is the Global Account Lead at WPP for Mondelez, and he reached out to me after listening to the first few episodes in this series. He pointed out that while we were focusing on how AI will impact the process of how the creative industries work, we hadn't talked about how it is already changing the work itself. WPP has made a significant investment in AI. The press reports that it's spending about $318 million annually in WPP Open, a set of AI capabilities that are now available to its 35,000 employees around the world. Adam explained why from his perspective, this investment creates a competitive advantage. I'm not an AI expert, nor have I seen WPP Open firsthand, to pass any judgment on its capabilities, and whether it is in fact superior to other forms of AI that are publicly available. This conversation is not intended to convince you whether WPP has created a competitive advantage or not. What it does establish is one clearly differentiated benchmark in the ecosystem of AI that are now springing up across the creative industries, and therefore, it provides one measurement against which to evaluate your own relationship with artificial intelligence. I'll wrap this series this week with one more bonus episode and then a recap. In the meantime, thanks for listening.

Making the digital advertising ecosystem more sustainable has been a burgeoning topic for the past couple of years, but the biggest excuse that's been holding back companies from making moves to actually reduce carbon emissions is the lack of standards around measuring emissions in the first place. But the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) and Ad Net Zero aimed to remedy those concerns with its Global Media Sustainability Framework, launched ahead of the Cannes Lions Festival earlier this month.“ We've reached a bit of an inflection point to sort of say, ‘Let's do the right thing by the industry, and make sure that there is a voluntary, flexible framework that basically can enhance transparency, drive consistency and introduce rigor in a way that drives confidence in the work,'” said Rob Rakowitz, co-founder and initiative lead at GARM. On the latest episode of the Digiday Podcast, Rakowitz shared how the framework and standards came together and how their existence should influence the way stakeholders implement carbon cutting initiatives and measure carbon emissions in the advertising ecosystem going forward.

Are you aiming high enough? This episode is the fourth in a series of conversations that I'm having in partnership with the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. For the weeks leading up to Cannes, we're focusing on a study of leadership through a single lens. The impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Creative Industries. Are we moving fast enough? Are we going far enough? Is this an opportunity to fundamentally redesign the creative industries? Or should we adjust and iterate slowly and carefully? Do we follow the puck or skate to where it's going? There are opportunities and risks around every corner. Yasu Sasaki is the Global Chief Creative Officer of Dentsu. His company has a presence in over 145 countries and regions, and they've been working with artificial intelligence, in one form or another, since 2011. One of the main questions facing the creative industries is which companies will see AI as an opportunity to stretch the boundaries of human creativity. To recognize that the limitations in our creativity are no longer practical, financial, or time-based, but are, in fact, our own confidence in our capacity to think originally. We can also use this opportunity to create greater efficiency, a worthy ambition in a world in which resources are scarce and a life in which the time available to us is finite. In theory and in practice, we can both raise the bar and lower cost. But we must be careful how we do it. At the end of the series, I'll offer some thoughts on what we've heard and learned and where we might go from here. In the meantime, thanks for joining us.

Edited highlights of our full length conversation. Are you seizing what is starting?

Her company is the fourth largest advertiser in the world. They are a 115-year old business that owns 37 brands. It's easy to see the world presumptively. To presume that big companies always move more cautiously, that they are slower to see, to adopt, and to adapt to disruptions in the eco system around them. But if your company believes, as Asmita frames it, in seizing what is starting, if you operate from a foot forward perspective, if you are relentlessly curious and consistently committed to the belief that creativity and innovation are all that separates you from your competitors, then the size of your company does not matter. Big or small. Old or new. You can seize what is starting, and define the future on your terms. At the end of the series, I'll offer some thoughts on what we've heard and learned, and where we might go from here. In the meantime, thanks for joining us.

Edited highlights of our full length conversation. Can you imagine? This episode is the second in a series of conversations I'm having in partnership with the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. For the weeks leading up to Cannes, we're focusing our study of leadership through a single lens. The impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Creative Industries. Are we moving fast enough? Are we going far enough? Is this an opportunity to fundamentally redesign the creative industries? Do we follow the puck or skate to where it's going? There are opportunities and risks around every corner. PJ Pereira is the Founder and Creative Chairman at Pereira O'Dell. PJ is also a published author and an artist in his own right. We talk about a piece of animation that he recently created for his latest novel in which he used AI, and and we've included a link in the show notes for this episode. One of the themes that's emerging from the conversations and background research I've been doing, is one of those realizations that is both surprising while striking me immediately as unquestionably true. As a species, human beings are particularly bad at recognizing the speed, scale and impact of exponential growth. Let me share an example I heard on a New York Times podcast recently, that uses cases of COVID to illustrate this. If you start with a single case, and cases double every three days, then after 30 days, you have about a thousand cases. We can all wrap our heads around that. But then go 30 days longer. Now, you have a million. Wait another 30 days? Now, you have a billion. AI is moving with the speed of a virus, and we are struggling to recognize the implications in ways that we can relate to. We don't have to go back too far to see how quickly our understanding of “normal” can change. On March 1st, 2020, society was operating pretty normally. Chris and I actually took a plane to Chicago on the 2nd, and we flew back to New York on the 5th. Five days later, five days, that idea was unimaginable, and it remained that way for a year. But speed of change is not the only measurement that we should be conscious of. The enormity of the gap between the normal, as we understand it today, and what we will demand as normal tomorrow, is usually beyond our imagination to see or to predict or to project. PJ brings those limitations of our imagination to life through a vivid and unforgettable example. At the end of the series, I'll offer some thoughts on what we've heard and learned, and where we might go from here. In the meantime, thanks for joining us.

In 2012, he was inducted into "The Hall of Achievement" by the American Advertising Federation.In this episode, I sit down with Rei Inamoto, Founding Partner of I&CO, at Martinez Beach in Cannes. We reminisce about how the Cannes Lions Festival has evolved over the past 18 years since Rei first attended, from a purely creative awards show to now being dominated by big tech companies.Rei shares the origin story behind the Future Lions competition he co-created with PJ Pereira to recognize and inspire young creative talent. We dive into I&CO's guiding principles captured in their 8 "Axioms", focusing on Rei's favorite - "Magic > Logic".Rei explains how this axiom captures the importance of human creativity and imagination in an increasingly data-driven world. We explore examples like how a simple transparent window in the sole of the Nike Air Max created a "key product moment" that made the technology magic and iconic.The discussion also covers Rei's 'Creative Mindset' podcast, where he interviews a diverse range of creative thinkers. He shares insights from guests like the President of Tama Art University on how talent is about uniqueness rather than being better than others.Throughout our engaging chat, Rei demonstrates his gift for drawing connections between design, technology and human creativity. So grab a drink and join us as we ponder the magic in the Martinez sunshine.ESPAÑOL:Él es co fundador de la agencia I&Co y se autodefine como Creative Futurist después de haber sido el Chief Creative Officer Global de AKQAFue nombrado por Creativity Magazine en su listado anual “Creativity 50” y en el listado “Las 25 personas más creativas en publicidad” por Forbes. En 2012, fue introducido a “The Hall of Achievement” por la American Advertising Federation.Esa noche recordamos cómo el Festival Cannes Lions ha evolucionado en los últimos 18 años desde que Rei asistió por primera vez, pasando de ser un festival de premios puramente creativos a estar ahora dominado por las grandes empresas tecnológicas.Rei comparte la historia detrás de la competencia Future Lions que co-creó con PJ Pereira para reconocer e inspirar a jóvenes talentos creativos. Nos sumergimos en los principios rectores de I&CO capturados en sus 8 "Axiomas", enfocándonos en el favorito de Rei: "Magia > Lógica".Rei explica cómo este axioma captura la importancia de la creatividad e imaginación humana en un mundo cada vez más impulsado por datos. Exploramos ejemplos como la simple ventana transparente en la suela de las Nike Air Max que creó un "momento clave del producto" que hizo que la tecnología fuera mágica e icónica.La discusión también cubre el podcast 'Creative Mindset' de Rei, donde entrevista a diversos pensadores creativos. Comparte ideas de invitados como el presidente de la Universidad de Arte de Tama sobre cómo el talento se trata de singularidad en lugar de ser mejor que otros.A lo largo de nuestra cautivadora charla, Rei demuestra su don para establecer conexiones entre el diseño, la tecnología y la creatividad humana.

On this episode of the Customers First Podcast, we had a fascinating conversation with Sheena Russell, the founder and CEO of Made With Local. She shared her journey of creating a company focused on producing delicious and nourishing foods made from locally sourced ingredients. Sheena's childhood in a food-focused and environmentally conscious family set the foundation for her passion for creating impact through her business. Starting with selling snack bars at farmer's markets, Sheena's company has now grown to retailers across Canada and into the U.S. Sheena emphasized the importance of building a community around the brand and being transparent and vulnerable in storytelling to connect with customers. Made With Local is a B Corp Certified company that follows ethical and environmental practices in its operations. She discussed the significance of trust and transparency in building a successful brand. The conversation delved into the decision-making process of sunsetting products, the inspiration behind launching granola bar mixes, and the innovative approach of showcasing seasonal ingredients in their products. Sheena also shared the adventurous story of delivering their products to the Cannes Lions Festival in France after a series of unexpected challenges.   Timestamps: 6:02: Building a Community Brand 15:58: Tough Decisions and Sunsetting Products 22:53: Launching Granola Bar Mixes 27:25: Cannes Film Festival Adventure 33:40: Shaping Moments   Sheena's Contact Information: Website: https://www.madewithlocal.com Social Media: @MadeWithLocal   Tacey's Contact Information:  Website: www.taceyatkinson.com   Social Media: @taceyatkinson Thank you for tuning in, and Tacey looks forward to having more valuable conversations together in the future.
