Can You Spot the Bot? 🕵️‍♀️ The Great AI Detection Drama

Boutique Owners,

Let’s spill the tea on AI in branding. Buckle up, because things are about to get real! 🛋️✨

Here’s the scoop from the pros at tinuiti.com:

AI Detection Drama: Only 19% of folks feel they can spot an AI-generated image from a real one. And brace yourself, only 8% say there's no chance they'd tell the difference. 🕵️‍♀️ Gen Z is strutting their stuff with 41% feeling confident in their AI-spotting skills. Baby boomers? Just 8%. 🙈

Buyer Beware: Even if people can't always detect AI, brands need to tread carefully. A cool 25% of consumers say they’d be less likely to buy from brands using AI for images, videos, or text in ads. Compare that to only 13% who say AI would make them more likely to purchase. The rest? Meh. 😒

Trust Issues: The big concern? 37% of respondents think brands using AI might be scams. On the flip side, some see these brands as futuristic and smart. Gen Z, true to form, is more likely to think AI-using brands are cool, even if they also suspect a scam. 🤖💡

Job Cuts Blowback: Here’s where it gets sticky. If AI use leads to layoffs, 61% of consumers would feel negatively about the brand, while a tiny 11% would view it positively. 🥲💼

Your Takeaway: Using AI can be a double-edged sword. It’s all about balance and transparency. Keep it smart, keep it real, and always, always put your customers first. 👑✨

Cheers to keeping it fierce and fabulous! 🎉💃 Angela
