Artificial intelligence technologies like machine learning, deep learning, virtual assistants, and conversational interfaces are surrounded by a lot of hype. The Gartner Hype Cycle is used to evaluate emerging technologies on a curve from inflated expectations to maturity. Real-world examples of AI include uses in marketing like Google ads, ecommerce like product recommendations, and logistics optimization. The future of AI will be shaped by factors like data availability and privacy concerns as well as each country's policies around developing and applying new AI technologies.

But choose wisely.

18. Universal Google Shopping
Issues
1. Regularly changing stock leads to
overreliance on the ‘Everything Else’ group
2. Flat bidding results in:
a) Showing for old stock
b) Showing the cheapest product
c) Not showing for the top performing
product
3. As there are no keywords, advertisers lack
control over the search terms they show for,
resulting in wasted ad spend.

Hello – Feed Management & Google Shopping – Product Development & AI.
Comparison Shopping Service.
Talk Title
Spoken about lots – Make it as useful as possible.
Gartner Hype curve – Separate Hype from real commercially viable products/solutions
Have a look at our industry and beyond – Using a Case Study
Future of AI – and make some predictions of our role in AI. Which areas may reach full adoption.
Explain what it is
Each section relevance
How it will support
Value vs technical possibility
2017 – 1 technology in Innovation
Rest in Peak of Inflated Expectations – Meaning : Lots of media coverage about success with limited failures
Did anything change into 2018?
The answer is not a lot
Got to be careful/realistic
Just want to have a look at the movements that were made, however slight they were – tell us a lot.
Machine learning is an absentee – Data Analytics – That uses past data to decision which are ultimately fed… - IBM Chess computer.
Omission is likely a result of focus shifting towards the subset of deep learning.
Why?
This cartoon explains a lot – “Read It”
It is a joke, but has some important lessons in it.
Machine learning, is still directed by humans – and will only act with the information prescribed in the way prescribed.
Open to Human Bias.
Amazon Robot.
Deep learning – goes someway to solving this
Use of neural nets (way brain works) – Framework for may different ML algorithms on top of each other.
Include many aspects – and understand the relative importance
Alpha Go / Jeapody – Computer beat out master.
Take what it knew and apply it to a situation it has never been in
Tech is surround by hype – promise in understanding downfalls of traditional ML,
shift to Deep learning
The development of new tech in ASICs (keep and eye)
PaaS will open this up to all
movement in VA and CUIs.
So what for the real world examples?
Noticed – All pored by this. Take a deeper look at what is available
GCP – for the company – Connecting your companies data
SciKit and Tensor flow – with limited coding – World Cup Predicting – Germany to the final (went out the groups) – Morocco to semis (god knows)
Point is – it is there for anyone to use
rankBrain now handles 100% of SQs
Perhaps more interesting – Inception of Deep learning on SEO is fast expanding
Self regulating system
Scary thought to think we may not be entirely involved.
What will happened?
Facebook negotiating robots
More Everyday used –
VA – already testing LIA (come ask me)
Image search – Mates jeans – And go to the shopping tab.
Translate – Ad Copy & Landing Pages – Not only to human analysis, but CTR and CR
Develop new phrases
Google Marketing Platform
Loads and Loads – But be careful? Bespoke automation or Machine learning.
Target one KPI (ROAS, conv, clicks)
What is your KPI, s their multiple
You may need to set up your own automation.
Don’t be lazy
Our own automation to overcome a variety of unique and ubiqutis issues with google Shopping.
This campaigns was for Harvey Nichols
And has one awards that have outdone many complex ML
On top of this industry challenge, a unique challenge presented nmpi and us an opportunity to enhance customer ad experience.
Harvey Nichols partner with Pitney Bowes, a global technology provider, who I am sure you have heard of.
Harvey Nichols utilise their platform to localise their product pricing and delivery costs outside of the UK and Ireland.
This means that when you go to the Harvey Nichols site anywhere in the world, the product price and shipping is localised to your IP address.
Let’s talk through exactly what that means…
If you log in from the UK you will be shown the standard product rate.
But log in from the US and the site makes a call to the Pitney Bowes API which recalculates the product price in-situ based on the live FX rate and your IP address.
This allows Harvey Nichols to expand internationally showing local users prices that they can relate to.
Of course this was a huge enhancement on-site user experience compared with showing GBP prices in all regions.
However it does present difficulties when operating Localised Inventory, Google Shopping, dynamic social and dynamic display campaigns.
As it means dynamic pricing cannot be easily inserted into our ads globally.
For most of these forms of ads it simply means that it is not possible to show customers accurate pricing and then deep link to the corresponding currency.
But, for Google shopping – it is a matter of operating shopping or not operating it.
Lots of examples – Vas, CUI, Image Search – likely to impact performance marketers first
At the moment you will have to combine these with clever automation of your own
So what about our future?
China will be the world’s dominant player in artificial intelligence by 2030. This isn’t a prediction by a researcher or academic, it’s government policy from Beijing.Data is the Fu
