Artificial intelligence (AI) has made quite a name for itself in the previous year. However, lately, its pitfalls have been dominating most of the conversation. By now, we are all familiar with the failed, yet viral, Willy Wonka Glasgow experience, and have witnessed the harm AI can cause to an event and its attendees. Unfortunately, when it comes to using AI technology, “Pure Imagination” needs some limitations.
Despite the 2017 Fyre Festival, event planners weren’t able to avoid the temptation of AI to prevent creating the next viral event hoax. The event industry can greatly benefit from technology advancements and AI, as long as event marketers and planners can implement a system of checks and balances to avoid relying too heavily on it. While it’s unlikely that this is the last instance of a misrepresented event, we can focus on learning from these mishaps, ultimately improving event experiences for everyone involved. Event planners can lean into these mistakes and turn them into lessons on how to ensure event goers aren’t led astray, address concerns and questions about the integration and use of AI, and work to prevent another viral hoax and fraudulent event.
The Emergence of AI in Event Planning
AI has permeated nearly every industry, offering a wide range of possibilities for efficiency and innovation. Unsurprisingly, event planners have eagerly embraced AI to optimize their projects. It’s impossible to believe that event marketers won’t be leaning into the technology, so it’s imperative that they’re doing so responsibly and truthfully. The promise of AI lies in its ability to analyze vast amounts of data, predict trends, and automate tedious tasks, therefore freeing up time for planners to focus on what they do best: creativity and strategy.
While these tools have great potential to lighten workloads, it’s essential to recognize that AI cannot completely replace the human touch in marketing efforts. Authenticity, personalization, and emotional connection are key factors in marketing that simply cannot be replicated by AI. Event marketers can find the balance with this by giving AI limitations to ensure it’s grounded in reality. With proper guardrails in place, event marketers and planners can ensure that ideas generated by AI are realistic in practice and geared towards the correct audience.
Where Marketers Are Missing the Mark
One of the critical mistakes marketers can make is relying on AI for content creation without integrating it into the broader objectives of event planning. Authenticity in events hinges on a blend of AI-driven content development and personalized experiences. While AI can certainly generate compelling marketing copy and visuals, it lacks the intuitive understanding of human emotions and cultural nuances that are essential for creating memorable experiences.
AI tools won’t grasp the entire picture of the event – it doesn’t understand the limitations or small logistics that need to be considered. If teams plan to use AI to develop marketing visuals for an event, as was the case in the Willy Wonka debacle, there needs to be human oversight in the process. Without it, the event planners risk eroding the trust they previously worked to build with their customers.
