• AI Agents Were Tasked With Running a Company

  AI agents are hyped as the future of work, with CEOs predicting they’ll replace significant parts of the corporate workforce. But a recent Carnegie Mellon study shows that reality hasn’t caught up: when AI agents were tasked with running a virtual company, even the best models completed less than a quarter of their assignments. From poor social understanding to a lack of flexibility and self-awareness, the current generation of agents struggles with real-world complexity. While early use cases — like AI in software development or CEOs using avatars in earnings calls — show promise, full automation is still far off. The real opportunity? Augmenting human teams, not replacing them.

• Transparency is the new currency for brand trust

  David Ogilvy coined the following statement: “Great marketing only makes a bad product fail faster.” Meaning: Overpromising cannot make up for underdelivering. Savvy! Smart man. But today, this beautiful statement no longer seems to apply. We are realizing that brands want to improve their products with all their might through automation and AI, even with deep fakes and so-called greenwashing and bluewashing. Today, we can learn more about products and companies than ever before. We can research online. We can read other people's product experiences in communities or on review platforms. But at the same time, there has never been so much misinformation. This unsettles consumers. We are losing trust. We have obviously already lost trust in politics. Trust in brands is also suffering greatly at the moment. This article describes the new currency in marketing: transparency. And how brands can successfully regain the trust and loyalty of their customers.
