In this episode, Dietmar Fischer explores why AI is getting a bad reputation, from sloppy AI-generated content to profiling, hacking, and the broader pressure on firms to prove real value beyond automation. The real question is no longer whether AI exists, but where it actually makes sense to use it. Dietmar argues that companies should stop using AI as a marketing trophy and instead focus on what humans do best. He warns against overloading clients with AI-generated material, emphasizes human services in communication, and explains why AI should not become your unique selling point. The episode also looks at AI slop, surveillance concerns, phishing, and the likely short-term pressure on the job market. 📧💌📧 Tune in to get my thoughts and all episodes, don't forget to subscribe to our Newsletter: beginnersguide.nl 📧💌📧 About Dietmar Fischer: Dietmar is a podcaster and AI marketer from Berlin.
